ITU-R S.1779 Annex 1 A satellite system with wideband spreading signals (direct sequence (DS) technology) 1 Introducti
8、on This Annex provides a description of transmission techniques using wideband spreading signals, referred to as a wideband satellite system, that can be used to transmit additional information without changing the operational frequency plan of the existing FSS system. One of the applications of the
9、 system would be for the transmission of emergency traffic, such as earthquake information, tsunami warnings, etc. Figure 1 illustrates this type of application. For the purposes of emergency signal transmission, user terminals should be compact and inexpensive, so that most people can install and u
10、se such receivers at any time. Therefore, those with small (low-gain) antennas would be convenient, which would also facilitate installation and maintenance. Antennas in conventional FDMA FSS systems are usually higher gain and must be oriented towards the satellite direction, due to antenna directi
11、vity, and the antenna orientation is easily subject to change by accidental force, such as earthquakes or tropical cyclones. In contrast to the above advantages, user terminals with low-gain antennas are affected by interference from adjacent satellites. The use of spreading signals is expected to m
12、itigate this deterioration due to inter-system interference because of its spreading gain. This is the reason the spreading signal is used for this type of application. The following applications have been evaluated to apply the technique: A satellite system with wideband spreading signals overlaid
13、on the conventional FSS FDMA signals. A satellite system with dedicated bandwidths for both FDMA signals and wideband spreading signals. In the following section, the link budget analysis in this application is presented using various parameters of the existing FSS system with evaluation results in
14、terms of the data rate. Note that the DS technology is assumed in this analysis. 2 Application 1 A satellite system with wideband spreading signals overlaid on the conventional FSS FDMA signals 2.1 System models The conceptual view of the system is shown in Fig. 2. Two system models, Model 1 and 2,
15、are assumed for a preliminary analysis on the wideband satellite system, which is summarized in Table 1. Model 1 is applied to a new satellite system using a regenerative type transponder, and Model 2 is applicable to the existing satellite system with a non-regenerative type one. The following scen
16、arios are also assumed for this analysis. Rec. ITU-R S.1779 3 FIGURE 1 Application of wideband spreading signals for emergency traffic transmission FIGURE 2 System model for satellite systems using wideband spreading signals TABLE 1 Assumed link models in a wideband satellite system Model 1 Model 2

ITU-R S.1779 2.1.1 The wideband spreading signals are overlaid onto the ex
18、isting FSS spectrum within the FSS allocation. The bandwidth of the wideband spreading signals is identical to the transponder bandwidth of the FSS, in which multiple FDMA carriers are allocated. Therefore the spread signals would be co-frequency with several adjacent FDMA signals of the same FSS ne
19、tworks, causing intra-system interference. 2.1.2 In Model 1, a conventional narrow-band type transmission is utilized for the uplink. For the downlink, the wideband spreading signals are transmitted through a transponder with very wide bandwidth, designed for the wideband satellite system, while the
20、 narrow-band signals are channelled through conventional narrow-band transponders. Figure 3 provides a diagram of a portion of the satellite payload in Model 1 which explains how the uplink signals are processed on board. FIGURE 3 Diagram of satellite transponder used in Model 1 2.1.3 In Model 2, fo
21、r the uplink the wideband spreading signals are overlaid onto the existing FDMA spectrum; both the FDMA signals and the wideband spreading signals are transmitted through a conventional transponder. For the downlink, just as for the uplink, both type signals are processed through a conventional tran
22、sponder. 2.1.4 The space segment consists of a single satellite. Both the wideband and the narrow-band signals are processed at a single space station, and a single antenna is shared to transmit them into a single satellite beam. On the other hand, a new type of terminal, receiving only the spreadin
23、g signals from the satellite, is assumed. The technical parameters of the wideband satellite system receiver can be independent from those of the existing FSS systems. 2.1.5 For ease of calculation, for the uplink both the FSS FDMA signals and the wideband spreading signals are transmitted from the
24、same earth station; the two types of receivers are located at the same position at the Earths surface, avoiding the need to take satellite antenna patterns into consideration. 2.2 Link budget analysis and performance estimation The achievable data rate is estimated by the link budgets in the 14/12 G
25、Hz bands. Since a conventional transponder and transmission scheme are used for the uplink, the data rate of the wideband satellite system is obtained considering downlink parameters. The calculation is carried out by implementing the following steps: Step 1: Using typical parameters in FSS systems
26、and the required C/I value for FDMA carriers, the downlink e.i.r.p. in the wideband satellite system is derived, which, accordingly, provides the received C/T at the wideband signal receiver. Step 2: Using the determined received C/T, an ideal data rate is obtained as the first step of the data rate
27、 analysis, assuming a condition where no FDMA carriers exist. Rec. ITU-R S.1779 5 Step 3: Just as in Step 2, the achievable data rate is derived taking the interference from FDMA carriers into the wideband satellite system into consideration. The procedures of the above steps are presented in more d
28、etail in the following sections. 2.2.1 Step 1 As shown in Fig. 4, the conventional FDMA carriers are transmitted in certain portions within the transponder bandwidths while the signals of the wideband satellite system are overlaid within the whole transponder bandwidth. First, the required C/I value
29、 for the FDMA carriers is given where C and I represent the output power of one of the FDMA carriers and that of the wideband satellite system, respectively. A C/I of 20 dB is employed in this analysis. Once the required C/I is given, the permissible e.i.r.p. on the space station for the wideband sa
30、tellite system is derived with the occupied bandwidth taken into consideration. Hence, the received C/T in the system, Rx C/T, is expressed by the following equation: Rx C/T = e.i.r.p. Lp Mrain+ G/T dB (1) where Lp, Mrainand G/T represent the free space path loss between the satellite and the receiv
31、er on the Earths surface, the rain margin and the receiving antenna G/T, respectively. FIGURE 4 Overlay of wideband satellite signals onto FDMA carriers in downlink 2.2.2 Step 2 When Rx C/T is given, the attainable information rate R is calculated by: R = Rx C/T (Eb/N0)req+ 228.6 dB (2) where (Eb/N0
32、)reqand “228.6” are the required Eb/N0and Boltzmanns constant, respectively. The above information rate is the ideal data rate estimated under the condition assuming the absence of narrow-band FDMA carriers. 6 Rec. ITU-R S.1779 2.2.3 Step 3 Finally, an achievable data rate is calculated for the wide
33、band satellite systems, considering multiple narrow-band FDMA carriers within the transponder bandwidth. In this case the downlink Rx C/T of the FDMA carriers is regarded as the interference with the wideband satellite system. The overall C/T in the case of Model 1 is obtained by summing up the down
34、link receiver C/T value of the wideband satellite system and the degradation of the downlink wideband receiver C/T value due to the interference caused by FDMA carriers. This procedure can be also applied to the case of Model 2. The channel usage of FDMA carriers is modelled for the analysis as show
35、n in Fig. 5 with usage of 100% defined as the whole spectrum in the transponder bandwidth being used by multiple narrow-band FDMA carriers, and a usage of 50% showing half the bandwidth occupied by the FDMA carriers. When the channel usage is 100%, for example, the wideband satellite system requires
36、 a higher spreading gain by 20 dB than in Step 2. Note that the guardbands are not considered here for ease of calculation. The way to calculate the data rate is the same as that presented in Step 2. FIGURE 5 Channel usage of 100% by FDMA carriers in downlink 2.3 Results of link budget analysis Typi
37、cal parameters of the FSS system and e.i.r.p. values in the wideband satellite system are summarized in Tables 2 and 3. Taking a C/I value of 20 dB into account, the e.i.r.p. density of the spreading signals would be 14.4 dB(W/MHz), as shown in Table 3. TABLE 2 Typical FSS system parameters Paramete

From Table 2, a
40、bandwidth of 72.0 MHz together with an e.i.r.p. value of 70.0 dBW gives an e.i.r.p. of 67.0 dBW in a 36 MHz bandwidth in Model 1. In Model 2, since the spreading signal level is suppressed 20 dB lower than that of the FDMA signal, an e.i.r.p. value of 47.0 dBW is obtained. The uplink Rx C/T is calcu
41、lated by equation (1), deriving an uplink Rx C/T value of 134.5 and 154.5 dB(W/K) for Models 1 and 2, respectively.

43、t follows that the satellite e.i.r.p. value is 38.2 dBW. Similarly, a satellite e.i.r.p. value of 30.0 dBW is obtained in Model 2. Using equation (1), the downlink Rx C/T is calculated: 171.9 and 180.2 dB(W/K) for Models 1 and 2, respectively. 8 Rec. ITU-R S.1779 TABLE 5 Link budget 2 (downlink) Wid

However, those effects are neglected in order to evaluate an ideal value in this link budget analysis, which will be discussed in 2.4.2. Therefore, a
46、n overall C/T is the same as the downlink Rx C/T of 171.9 and 180.2 dB(W/K) for Models 1 and 2, respectively.
