Sharing considerations: deep-space Earth-to-space bands Table 1 and the following paragraphs consider the possibility of interference in the deep-space research

7、Earth- to-space bands. TABLE 1 Potential interference in Earth-to-space bands I Receiver I Source I ITU-R RECMN*SA= 1016 94 4855232 05123360 071 M 34 Rec. ITU-R SA.1016 1.1 Potential interference to terrestrial or earth station receivers from deep-space earth station transmitters The normal maximum

8、total power for current deep-space earth stations is 50 dBW. For a minimum elevation angle of lo“, the e.i.r.p. directed towards the horizon does not exceed 57 dB(W/4 kHz), assuming the reference earth station antenna radiation pattern of Recommendation ITU-R SA.509. For spacecraft emergencies, the

9、maximum total power may be increased to 56 dBW, giving not more than 63 dB(W/4 kHz) at the horizon. These values of e.i.r.p. meet the requirements of No. 2540 of the Radio Regulations (RR). Aircraft stations within line-of-sight of a deep-space earth station may encounter total power flux-densities

10、as shown in Fig. 1. For an aircraft altitude of 12 km, the maximum line-of-sight distance to an earth station is 391 lun and the total power flux-density at the aircraft can never be lower than -83 dB(W/m2), again assuming the antenna pattern of Recommendation ITU-R SA.509. Depending on distance and

11、 earth station antenna direction, the aircraft station may experience much higher flux densities and interference levels. Coordination with airborne stations is generally not practicable.

15、the deep-space earth station beam will encounter power flux-densities as shown in Fig. 1. When the earth station is tracking a spacecraft whose direction is such that the antenna beam passes through the geostationary satellite orbit (GSO), the power flux-density at that point on the orbit will vary

16、with time as shown in Fig. 2. For example, the total power flux-density will be -95 dB(W/m2) or more for 32 min. The figure assumes a transmitter power of 50dBW, a 70 m antenna, and the reference earth station antenna pattern of Recommen- dation ITU-R SA.509. An important observation is that the min

17、imum power flux-density at the GSO within line-of-sight of a deep-space earth station is at least -122 dB(W/m2), regardless of antenna pointing direction. The duration and magnitude of signals from deep-space earth station transmitters which may interfere with satellites in non-geostationary orbits

18、depends upon those orbits and the direction in which the earth station antenna is pointing.

I. 3 Potential interference to deep-space station receivers from terrestrial or earth station transmitters Terrestrial or earth station transmitters within sight of a

20、 deep-space station are potential sources of interference. Figure 3 shows the space station distance at which the interference power density from such a transmitter equals the receiver noise power density. For example, a trans-horizon station with 93 dB(W/lO kHz) e.i.r.p. in the 2.1 GHz band could i

The possibility of interference at such a great distance poses a threat to space missions to planets as far away as Uranus. Stations with lower e.i.r.p., or with antennas pointing away from the eclipti

Interference with deep-space station receivers may occur for those bri

26、ef periods when the satellite antenna is directed so as to permit main beam coupling. As received at deep-space stations, signals from satellites will almost always be weaker than those from earth stations. 2. Sharing considerations: space-to-Earth bands Table 2 and the following sections consider t

27、he possibility of interference in the deep-space research space-to- Earth bands. TABLE 2 Potential interference in space-to-Earth bands ITU-R RECMNaSA- 1016 94 m 4855212 0523363 880 m Rec.

28、ansmitters Figure 4 shows the power flux-density at the surface of the Earth caused by typical deep-space stations. These stations often use low gain, wide beam antennas while near Earth. After a time not exceeding six hours after launch, they are usually at a sufficient distance for the power flux-

29、density at the surface of the Earth to be less than the maximum permitted by the RR for protection of line-of-sight radio-relay systems.

31、sity, RR No. 2557 io9 IOO When the transmitting space station is using a higher gain directional antenna, there is the potential for interference with sensitive terrestrial receivers if their antennas are directed so as to permit main beam coupling. A space station operating at 2.3 GHz with an e.i.r

32、.p. of 51 dBW at a distance of 5 x lo8 km could create an input of -168 dBW to a trans-horizon receiver (27 m antenna, main beam). The duration of such interference would be of the order of a few minutes, once a day, because of the rotation of the Earth. 2.2 Potential interference to Earth orbiting

33、satellite receivers from deep-space transmitters Considerations of this interference are similar to those for the space station to terrestrial receiver case, 0 2.1, with the exception of the path geometry. Depending on the changing conditions of that geometry, occasional brief interference is possib

34、le. 2.3 Potential interference to deep-space earth station receivers from terrestrial or earth station transmitters Interference to deep-space earth station receivers may come from terrestrial or earth stations over line-of-sight paths, by tropospheric phenomena, or by rain scatter. For coordination

ITU-R SA.1016 Amount by which aircraft signal exceeds maximum allowable interference power() (dB) Terrestrial services utilizing high power transmitters and

36、high gain antennas are potential interference sources. Earth station transmitters are less likely sources of interference, depending on e.i.r.p. in the direction of the deep-space earth station. Coordination should enable adequate protection from radio-relay stations to be provided. 13.0 Aircraft tr

37、ansmitters within sight of a deep-space earth station may cause serious interference. At maximum line-of-sight distance in any direction (391 km for an aircraft at 12 km altitude), an e.i.r.p. of -26 dB(W/Hz) (for example, 10 dB(W/4 kHz) and O dBi antenna gain) will exceed the earth station interfer

38、ence limit by at least the amount shown in Table 3, assuming the reference earth station antenna pattern.

39、limit. Airborne radionavigation transmitters that may operate in the 32 GHz region of the spectrum are a particular example of potential sources of harmful interference to deep-space earth station receivers. This class of transmitter includes a wide variety of characteristics: output power; CW, puls

40、e, or chirp modulation; fixed or scanning antennas with narrow or wide beam patterns. The probability and degree of interference from a particular transmitter can be determined on a case-by-case basis that is beyond the scope of this Annex. Nevertheless, it is generally true that if an airborne radi

41、onavigation transmitter is within line-of-sight of the earth station receiver, the maximum allowable level of interference can be exceeded for a time sufficient to cause degradation to, or interruption of, service. Coordination with airborne stations is generally not practicable. 2.4 Potential inter

42、ference to deep-space earth station receivers from Earth orbiting satellite transmitters An analysis of the potential for interference in the 2 290-2 300 MHz band from satellites in highly eccentric orbits may be found in ex-CCIR Report 688 (Geneva, 1982). It is concluded that sharing is not feasibl

43、e. This conclusion is also valid for satellites in circular and moderately eccentric orbits. 2.5 Potential interference to deep-space earth station receivers from Earth orbiting satellites that are transmitting to a geostatiunary relay satellite Table 4 presents an analysis of a situation where a li

44、nk between a user spacecraft and a geostationary data relay satellite (DRS) grazes the surface of the Earth near the location of a deep-space earth station. It is assumed that the main beam of the earth station antenna is directed at the user satellite. The negative interference margin means that th

45、e protection criterion for the earth station receiver has been violated. Rec. ITU-R SA.1016 TABLE 4 Interference from relay satellite link to deep-space earth station (32 GHz) DRS user-satellite altitude (km) Transmitter power (dBW) Bandwidth convervion (300 Mbis, QPSK) (dB/Hz) Transmitting antenna

47、-161.7 -217.3 -55.6 To reduce the negative interference margin shown in the table to O dB, the DRS user satellite must remain at least 1.7“ away from the main beam axis of the earth station antenna. If the earth station is tracking a particular spacecraft in deep-space each day, and if the DRS user

48、satellite passes through the earth station antenna beam at some time during a given day, then the satellite will pass through the beam at less than 1.7“ from the beam axis with a frequency ranging between once every 12 days to once each day. The frequency depends upon the satellite orbit period. For

49、 example, a satellite with an orbit period of 84 min can produce a negative interference margin of up to 0.8 min duration every seventh day. Although an interference interval of less than 1 min is relatively unimportant for some radio services, in the space research service it can result in irreplaceable loss of scientific data for several minutes (see 5 1.1). The analysis presented above considers only a single user-satellite and one deep-space earth station. A greater number of satellites would increase the probability of interference. It is concluded that band sharing by de
