9、3.377 GHz band with respect to the space research service (2012) Scope Links in the inter-satellite service (ISS) are used by some systems to interconnect two or more non-GSO satellites together. This Recommendation presents protection criteria and interference assessment methods for such non-GSO IS

10、S links in the 23.183-23.377 GHz band with respect to the space research service (SRS). The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that the band 22.55-23.55 GHz is allocated on a co-primary basis to the inter-satellite, fixed and mobile services; b) that ISS links of non-GSO systems connect

11、 satellites providing service in other mobile satellite and fixed satellite bands; c) that the band is also shared by systems in the fixed service and other ISS links connecting satellites in the space research service; d) that methods exist for analysing the interference from other systems operatin

12、g in the band allocated to non-GSO ISS links; e) that some operational non-GSO systems use ISS links, recommends 1 that the aggregated unwanted emission levels in the band 23.183-23.377 GHz due to earth stations in the space research service operating in the band 22.55-23.15 GHz should not exceed a

13、power density of 155 dBW/MHz at the input to a non-GSO ISS satellite receiver, for a fraction of time greater than 102per cent (0.01%); 2 that the factors described in Annex 2 should be used to evaluate unwanted emission levels into the non-GSO system from space research service systems in the alloc

14、ation; 3 that the following Note should be considered as part of this Recommendation. NOTE A type of system that requires protection and operates in the band 23.183-23.377 GHz is described in Annex 1. 2 Rec.

15、nter-satellite links in the range 23.183-23.377 GHz At least one non-GSO satellite communication system uses the ISS links in the 22.55-23.55 GHz band. The major characteristics of an operating constellation are presented in Table A. Its orbital configuration is described in Table B. Due to the cros

16、s-linked nature of the satellite constellation in providing end-to-end services, the channel usage and loading distribution is non-uniform and difficult to characterize at any given time and location.

ITU-R S.1899 Annex 2 Factors in protection criteria 1 Potential sources of interference The ISS shares the allocation 22.55-23.55 GHz with the fixed and mobile co-primary services. The addition of s

23、ervices such as the space research service opens the possibility of additional sources of interference and prompts the interest in establishing protection criteria for the ISS. 2 Protection criteria For studies of out-of-band interference from proposed SRS uplinks operating in 22.55-23.15 GHz into t

24、he non-GSO system described in Annex 1 that uses inter-satellite links (ISL) operating in the 23.183-23.377 GHz band, the protection criteria of I/N = 16 dB not to be exceeded more than 0.01% of the time at the input to each ISL receiver taking into account the aggregated effect of all SRS earth sta

25、tions in operation in the 22.55-23.15 GHz band would be used. An I/N = 16 dB corresponds to an I0= 155 dB(W/MHz), derived from the system noise temperature given in Table A. Recognizing that this non-GSO system shares its ISS spectrum with other services, the above criterion does not apply now or in

26、 the future to the existing service sharing arrangements for systems operating in the part of the allocation in which the ISL of this system operate. The protection criterion in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1155 applies to the existing systems with which this system shares spectrum. Furthermore, the shar

27、ing studies between SRS uplinks and non-GSO-non-GSO ISS links operating co-frequency in the band 22.55-23.15 GHz should apply the value of I/N = 10 dB not to be exceeded more than 0.1% per link as set forth in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1155. 3 Antenna pattern In discussing the antenna pattern that sho

28、uld be used to represent the non-GSO system ISS receiving antenna in SRS interference studies two possibilities were initially considered. On the one hand, a preference was expressed for the pattern in Recommendation ITU-R F.1245 for compatibility studies with dynamic interference configurations, wh

29、ereas on the other hand it was considered that the antenna pattern in Recommendation ITU-R S.672 was more appropriate when considering interference from a single interference source. It was noted that neither pattern may, in itself, serve as fully appropriate to use in the analyses of ISS antennas f

30、or use in interference studies. It was also noted that, in determining the statistical behaviour of interference, it would be more appropriate to consider antenna patterns that reflect the oscillatory shape of real radiation patterns. This type of pattern is usually considered in situations involvin

31、g multiple interference entries or in situations where the interference off-axis arrival angle at the victim receiving antenna varies in time, which is the case in question. In consideration of the above, it was concluded that a pattern that lies between the patterns in Recommendations ITU-R F.1245

32、and ITU-R S.672 and that reflects the oscillatory shape of real antenna radiation patterns would most appropriately model the ISS antenna. Rec. ITU-R S.1899 5 Therefore, the following pattern should be used for modelling the non-GSO system ISS antenna in carrying out such unwanted emission level stu

34、ystem. These include either analytical or dynamic computer simulation methodologies. In conducting such analyses it is necessary to consider the rapid movements of the non-GSO satellites crossing through narrow SRS uplink beams, as well as movements of the inter-planar cross link antennas of such no

35、n-GSO satellites relative to SRS earth station antenna pointing. Thus, the use of dynamic computer simulations is an appropriate method to determine the potential interference to these non-GSO satellites operating in the ISS. In addition, the analytical method in Recommendation ITU-R S.1529 is an al

36、ternative appropriate method to determine the potential interference to the ISS links of these non-GSO satellites, recognizing that the Recommendation ITU-R S.1529 method may have to be adapted, verified and validated to consider scenarios involving SRS satellite operations in non-Earth orbits. Simu

37、lation parameters, such as the time interval between samples and total simulation times, should be chosen to guarantee reliable results. The results obtained from different methods should be compared to assess reliability. In this sense, comparison with results from the analytical method contained in Recommendation ITU-R S.1529 would be a useful technique. In particular, it can be very useful in situations involving very low probability events. _
