9、station antennas used with satellites in the geostationary-satellite orbit for use in coordination and/or interference assessment in the frequency range from 2 to 31 GHz (2010) Scope This Recommendation provides alternative reference radiation patterns to the ones given in Recommendation ITU-R S.465

10、 which may be used for both circular and non-circular earth station antennas used with satellites in the geostationary-satellite orbit (GSO) and which, in the absence of particular information concerning the radiation pattern, may be used for coordination and/or interference assessment between earth

11、 stations in the fixed-satellite service (FSS) and stations of other services sharing the same frequency band as well as coordination and/or interference assessment between systems in the FSS. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that, for coordination and for the assessment of mutual

12、 interference between radiocommunication-satellite systems and between earth stations of such systems and stations of other services sharing the same frequency band, it is convenient to use a commonly agreed upon radiation pattern that is met by most antennas for the earth station antenna; b) that,

13、for the determination of coordination distance and for the assessment of interference between earth and terrestrial stations, a radiation pattern based on the level met by all but a small percentage of the side-lobe peaks may be appropriate; c) that, for coordination and for the assessment of interf

14、erence between earth stations and space stations, a radiation pattern for the region near the main beam based on the envelope of the peak gain of the side lobes in this region may be appropriate; d) that, at angles relative to the axis of the main beam where effects peculiar to the particular feed s

15、ystem used do not contribute appreciably to the gain in the side lobes, the radiation patterns for numerous existing earth station antennas show only moderate scatter about a simple generalized radiation pattern, at least within the frequency range from 2 to 31 GHz; e) that, for antennas of the Cass

16、egrain type over the range of angles relative to the axis of the main beam where contributions to the side-lobe gain occur primarily as a result of spill-over, the patterns of a number of existing antennas also show reasonable agreement; f) that, at large off-boresight axis angles, the likelihood of

17、 local ground reflections needs to be considered; g) that the use of antennas with the best achievable radiation patterns will contribute to a more efficient use of the radio-frequency spectrum and the geostationary-satellite orbit (GSO); *This Recommendation provides an alternative reference radiat

18、ion pattern to be considered in those cases where use of this reference pattern results in improved sharing conditions, as compared to Recommendation ITU-R S.465 which also addresses reference earth station radiation pattern for use in coordination and/or interference assessment.

ITU-R S.1855 h) that in the case of smaller antennas (diameter-to-wavelength (D/) ratio less than 46.8), some relaxation in the radiation pattern for far side lobes and back lobes relative to the radiation pattern envelope of Recommendation ITU-R S.465 may be necessary, recognizing a) that f

20、or the radiation pattern envelope of any non-rotationally symmetric antenna aperture shape, the minimum off-axis angle at which an antenna reference pattern applies may vary depending upon the angle of rotation about the antenna main-lobe axis, noting a) that by the principle of reciprocity, for the

21、 same or a nearby frequency band, the antenna pattern envelope for receiving antennas should be similar to that for transmitting antennas; b) that increased utilization of the orbital arc has resulted in the increased use of small antennas having the larger physical dimension aligned with the GSO ar

22、c as seen from the earth station location (defined in this Recommendation as DGSO) therefore improving the off-axis characteristics in the GSO plane; c) that in the case of small antennas, where the far side lobes and back lobes do not meet the radiation pattern of Recommendation ITU-R S.465 but do

23、meet the radiation pattern of this Recommendation, there is little impact to spectrum and orbit efficiency, however use of such antennas could make coordination more difficult with other services sharing the same frequency band, and thus such use should be confined to frequency bands that do not sha

NOTE 2 The radiation pattern of recommends 2.2 represents a maximum envelope, especially with respect to the back lobes. Measurements have demonstrated that some antennas with D/

NOTE 3 For the purpose of this Recommendation, it is assumed that the minimum (D/) ratio in any direction of interest is not less than 15. NOTE 4 This Recommendation only applies where the off-axis angle between the dire

39、tion. NOTE 6 The calculation of the minimum angle minused in recommends 2 requires the determination of the cross-sectional dimension D of the antenna aperture. In the case of a circular or elliptical antenna, Annex 1 should be consulted for details on the calculation of D at an angle of rotation ,

In order to facilitate the use of this reference earth station antenna pattern in th

Knowing Deqand DGSO,the cross-sectional dimension D (see Fig. 1) of an antenna described by an equivalent area ellipse can be specified at an angle of rotation in a counter-clockwise direction from the GSO plane. The expression for D is: cos1sin222+=KKDDGSO(2) where the parameter 2=eqGSODDK The value of D, in the direction of interest at a rotation angle , may be used directly in the calculation of the minimum angle minin recommends 2.
