3、the technological progress;b) that for the feeder link of the broadcasting-satellite service planning purposes a simple receive space stationantenna reference pattern is necessary;c) that the existing RR Appendix 30A (Orb-88) Regions 1 and 3 receive space station antenna patterns are nolonger approp
4、riate due to technological improvements;d) that measured data in support of an improved receive antenna reference pattern is available;e) that the use of antennas with the best achievable radiation pattern will lead to the most efficient use of theradio-spectrum and the geostationary-satellite orbit
