10、 Rep. ITU-R SA.2162 1 Introduction At the World Administrative Radio Conference for dealing with frequency allocations in Certain Parts of the Spectrum (WARC-92) (Malaga-Torremolinos, 1992), a secondary allocation was made to the space research service in the 410-420 MHz band for space-to-space oper

11、ations. These operations, limited to 5 km from an orbiting manned space vehicle, are to permit EVA communications between astronauts and between astronauts and primary or base space vehicles. As permanent space facilities are developed in the future, the needs and requirements for EVA will also incr

12、ease in order to support many of the planned and envisioned space activities. This is particularly true when considering the construction, maintenance, and operation of space facilities. This Report contains update to the work done at (CCIR, 1991). It shows the EVA communication requirements in the

13、410-420 MHz band and identifies typical communication characteristics for the fixed and mobile services in the band. The Report contains the interference investigation/analysis from the space research EVA systems to the fixed and mobile service systems in terms of power flux-densities incident at th

14、e surface of the Earth. A representative fixed service system and a representative mobile service system are used in evaluating interference to the space research EVA links. The power flux-density (pfd) levels in this Report under 4 (called new proposed PFD limits) are those in No. 5.268 in the Radi

15、o Regulations (RR). 2 Space research service objectives and requirements The primary purpose for the space research space-to-space links in the 410-420 MHz band is to provide high quality communication links for astronauts who have exited a space vehicle and are engaged in extra-vehicular activity.

16、These links serve to provide the following three necessary communication requirements: a direct means of voice communication between astronauts engaged in EVA operations; a direct means of voice communication between an astronaut and the primary space vehicle; a direct means of data communication fr

17、om an astronaut to the primary space vehicle. Astronauts communicate via an EVA mobility unit (EMU) attached to the astronauts life support suit. Although communications may be required infrequently, the need for establishing the link must be available at any time. A maximum of four astronauts will

18、be able to communicate simultaneously with the primary space vehicle. Typical orbital altitudes for EVA activities range from 333 km to 460 km with inclination angles of up to 60. Maximum operational distance for communications between astronauts is 500 m. For communications between an astronaut and

19、 primary space vehicle, the maximum operational distance is 1 000 m. 3 System description and characteristics The required communications in this system results in the following three links: links between two (or more) astronauts (EMU-to-EMU); links from an astronaut to the base vehicle (EMU-to-base

20、); links from the base vehicle to one (or more) astronauts (base-to-EMU). Table 1 lists the communication characteristics and Table 2 shows the link equations for this system. Antenna radiation pattern diagrams for the EMU antenna and the base vehicle antenna are given in Figs. 1 and 2. Rep. ITU-R S

26、ile service links from space research service EVA links Report ITU-R M.358 Protection ratios and minimum field strengths required in the mobile services, specifies that a degradation of the initial S/N of 20 dB to a S/(N + I) of 14 dB is an acceptable protection ratio. This 6 dB of degradation equat

27、es to a S/I of 15.26 dB. This criterion was used to determine the allowed unwanted field strength and corresponding pfd values from EVA links to protect terrestrial mobile receiving stations. At a 0 elevation angle, an unwanted field strength of 1.4 dB(V/m) in a 16 kHz band, corresponding to a pfd o

28、f 153.2 dB(W/(m2 4 kHz) was determined for a base station. For a mobile station, an unwanted field strength of +1.6 dB(V/m) in a 16 kHz band, corresponding to a pfd of 150.2 dB(W/(m2 4 kHz) was determined. Rep. ITU-R SA.2162 5 Curves B, C, D, and E of Fig. 3 show values of worst-case unwanted field

29、strength (expressed in terms of pfds incident at the mobile receiving station) as a function of the angle of elevation of the satellite, taking into account the change in receiving antenna gain with increasing elevation angles. An interfering field strength less than (to the left of) the values give

30、n by the curves would meet the criteria. Curve A of Fig. 3 shows the pfd limits developed by the (CCIR, 1991). As can be seen from the figure, the interfering field strength meets the criteria at most points, and is marginal for the worst-case elevation angles. FIGURE 3 Power flux density (PFD) inci

ITU-R SA.2162 The sharing situation between EVA transmitters and terrestrial fixed systems is similar to that involving m

33、obile base stations using 12 dBi antennas. Typical fixed systems have 25 W transmitters and use 10 dBi gain antennas with maximum gains pointed towards the horizon. The current technology allows for more restriction on the EVA system thus allowing for more protection for the fixed and mobile service

34、s in the band. Figure 4 shows the recommended limits agreed to by the (CCIR, 1991), the proposed new recommended limits and the maximum pfd incident at the surface of the Earth produced by the EVA system.

ITU-R SA.2162 7 5 Interference to space research service EVA links from fixed and mobile service stations In considering interference to EVA links, two assumptions are required regarding the developm

37、ent of a set of representative transmission characteristics and a worldwide distribution of mobile service stations. An explanation of these assumptions is given below: Characteristics of representative mobile emitters Characteristics of mobile systems in the 410-420 MHz band were based on data from

38、 the International Frequency List (IFL) and usage in the United States of America. Characteristics of typical base and mobile stations are as follows: Base Mobile Power (W) 100.0 100.0 Power (dBW) 20.0 20.0 Maximum gain (dB) 12.0 or 5.0 5.0 Bandwidth (kHz) 16.0 16.0 In some parts of the world, lower

39、 powers may be typically used. Figure 5 shows four antenna patterns typically used in the mobile service: a 12 dBi base station antenna, a 5 dBi base station antenna, a quarter-wave dipole vehicle antenna, and a 5 dBi vehicle antenna. For this analysis, the population of mobile transmissions is assu

40、med to be made up of the following mix of antennas, using the transmitter power levels given above. 25% are base stations, using the 12 dBi base station antenna pattern (see Fig. 5a); 25% are base stations, using the 5 dBi base station antenna pattern (see Fig. 5b); 25% are mobile stations, using th

41、e quarter-wave dipole antenna pattern (see Fig. 5c); 25% are mobile stations, using the 5 dBi mobile station antenna pattern (see Fig. 5d). Line losses, although assumed to be zero in this analysis, would typically reduce the e.i.r.p. by 3 dB. The number and distribution of simultaneous emitters The

42、 extent to which the 410-420 MHz band is used throughout the world by the mobile services can only be roughly estimated since there is no international requirement to register all the systems in the band. For the purpose of this analysis, it was therefore necessary to assume some sort of a worldwide

43、 distribution of these systems. This distribution was based on the following considerations: the identification of the 479 largest cities in the world. These are shown in Fig. 6; mobile systems will be used mainly in and around these large cities; based on United States statistics, one terrestrial s

44、tation per 6 224 people is assumed for the most populated cities in the world; for areas outside large cities: for every country where the number of telephones per capita exceeded 1% of the United States rate (from a 1990 World Almanac), the country was divided into approximately 100 km2. Each of th

45、ese squares represents the location of 33 terrestrial stations. The locations of these rural areas are shown in Fig. 7; it is assumed that each mobile station operates with a 20% duty cycle. 8 Rep.

48、e interfering power level produced at orbital altitudes of 333 km and 460 km and an inclination of 60 was calculated for every point on the orbit. Interference was calculated as the power level in dB(W/MHz) that would be received by an isotropic antenna. The highest interference level obtained was 9

49、1.7 dB(W/MHz) incident at the satellite at an altitude of 333 km. Figure 8 shows the interference level versus percentage of time for the simulations. The received interference levels were the greatest over the United States of America and Europe. A map depicting the locations on the EVA orbit where the interference level was the greate
