25、e software algorithm described in this Annex is designed for its application by the BR to conduct examination of the non-GSO FSS system notifications for their compliance with the limits contained in Tables 22-1A, 22-1B, 22-1C, 22-1D, 22-1E, 22-2 and 22-3 of Article 22 of the RR. The algorithm could

26、 also under certain conditions permit examination of whether coordination is required between non-GSO FSS systems and large earth stations under Articles 9.7A and 9.7B using the criteria in RR Appendix 5. The algorithm in this Recommendation was developed based upon a reference GSO satellite in equa

27、torial orbit with zero inclination angle. The analysis to determine whether a non-GSO satellite system meets the epfd limits in Article 22 of the RR is made by calculating the epfd levels at this reference satellite or at an earth station pointing towards it. A GSO satellite system operating at othe

28、r inclination angles could be predicted to receive higher epfd levels without the non-GSO satellite system being considered in breach of the Article 22 limits. Analysis under RR Nos. 9.7A and 9.7B, however, is to determine if coordination is required by comparing against the trigger level in Appendi

29、x 5 of the RR, and therefore in this case other methodologies, including those that assume non-zero GSO satellite inclination, could be acceptable alternatives. 4 Rec.

30、t comprises initial data and calculation for the notifying administration and the BR. The data section contains the whole set of parameters relevant to the notified non-GSO system, a set of reference GSO system parameters as well as epfd limits provided by the BR. The calculation section is designed

31、 for estimations required to examine notified non-GSO systems compliance with the epfd limits. The calculation section is based on a concept of a downlink power flux-density (pfd) mask (see Note 1), an uplink effective isotropic radiated power (e.i.r.p.) mask (see Note 2) and inter-satellite e.i.r.p

32、. mask (see Note 3). NOTE 1 A pfd mask is a maximum pfd produced by a non-GSO space station and is defined in Part C. NOTE 2 An e.i.r.p. mask is a maximum e.i.r.p. radiated by a non-GSO earth station and is a function of latitude and the angle from the boresight of the transmitting antenna main beam

33、 to a point on the GSO arc. NOTE 3 An inter-satellite e.i.r.p. mask is a maximum e.i.r.p. radiated by a non-GSO space station and is a function of latitude and the angle between the line to the sub-satellite point and a point on the GSO arc.

38、inistrations and the BR for software employment Taking into account significant complexity regarding specific features of different non-GSO system configurations in the software it would seem appropriate to impose some burden of responsibility relevant to testing for epfd limits on administrations n

39、otifying appropriate non-GSO systems. Therefore the examination procedure for meeting epfd limits would consist of two stages. The first stage would include derivation of a mask for pfd/e.i.r.p. produced by interfering non-GSO network stations. The mask would account for all the features of specific

40、 non-GSO systems arrangements (such as possible beam pointing and transmit powers). The first stage would be finalized by the delivery of the pfd/e.i.r.p. mask to the BR. 6 Rec. ITU-R S.1503-3 The second stage calculations would be effected at the BR. The second stage would feature the following ope

41、rations: Identification of the runs required for a non-GSO network taking into account the frequencies for which it has filed and the frequency ranges for which there are epfd limits in Article 22 (Block 2).

Any administration may use software that uses the algorithms defined in this Annex together with data on the non-GSO networks to estimate statistics for interference into its o

Part C Definitions and estimation algorithms for pfd/e.i.r.p. masks relative to non-GSO network earth and space stations are presented. Specifics of th

Part D The part deals with general requirements on the software related to examination of non-GSO networks notifications, algorithms to estimate epfd statistics, and the format for output data presentation. Part D covers issues of Blocks
