9、cope The purpose of this Recommendation is to provide an alternative antenna pattern for broadcasting-satellite service (BSS) receiving earth stations with effective apertures in the range 55-75 cm. This alternative pattern is based on relative gain (dB) and has improved co-polar side lobe suppressi
10、on (especially in the 2.5-9 off-axis angular range) and better cross-polar discrimination as compared to the existing reference antenna pattern in Recommendation ITU-R BO.1213, which is based on absolute gain. The alternative pattern could be used for bilateral/multilateral negotiations of new or mo

13、arth station antenna patterns The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that Resolution 86 (Rev. WRC-07) of the World Radiocommunication Conference (Geneva, 2007) invites ITU-R and administrations to study possibilities to facilitate the rational, efficient, and economical use of radio fre
14、quencies and any associated orbits, including the GSO and the related appendices of the Radio Regulations to reflect the latest technologies, as far as possible; b) that the planning of the broadcasting-satellite service (BSS) in the 11.7-12.5 GHz band for Region 1 and in the 11.7-12.2 GHz for Regio
15、n 3 is based on a radiation pattern of a 60 cm receiving antenna (WRC-2000) having circular polarization that could be used for intra-regional and inter-regional coordination purposes with BSS and other services systems using linear polarization; c) that the use of a radiation pattern with improved
16、discrimination for BSS earth station antennas will contribute to more space on the GSO for new assignments in the Regions 1 and 3 List of additional uses; d) that the Region 2 BSS Plan is based on an earth station diameter of 1 metre with the relative gain reference radiation pattern for receiving e
17、arth stations antennas having comparatively narrower half power beamwidth and steeper slopes allowing comparatively closer location of the GSO positions and use of various antenna design options; 2 Rec.

18、ith antenna major axis length of 70 cm on the plane parallel to the GSO orbit and antenna minor axis length of 50 cm on the plane perpendicular to the GSO orbit demonstrate improvement of the co-polar and cross-polar discrimination compared to the Recommendation ITU-R BO.1213 radiation pattern for a
19、 60 cm circular antenna, which is a consequence of improved antenna technologies and design; f) that it would be useful to have an alternative antenna radiation pattern for BSS earth stations in the assessment of interference impact of new or modified assignments in the Region 2 Plan or Regions 1 an
20、d 3 List of additional uses; g) that the use of antennas which comply with an alternative mask with improved discrimination could contribute to the efficient use of the radio-frequency spectrum and the GSO, recognizing a) that the adoption of an alternative BSS earth station antenna radiation patter
21、n with improved side lobe discrimination as compared to Recommendation ITU-R BO.1213 could motivate antenna manufacturers to make BSS receiving antennas based on this new alternative radiation pattern; b) that there is no intention to replace the existing reference antenna pattern in Recommendation
22、ITU-R BO.1213, which has been extensively used in the Plan and in the List, with any recently developed reference antenna pattern; c) that the adoption of such alternative BSS earth station antenna radiation pattern with improved side lobe discrimination does not prevent the use of other antenna pat
23、terns in BSS systems negotiations between administrations, noting that the main lobe of BSS receiving earth stations antenna radiation patterns is described by the quadratic dependence in Recommendation ITU-R BO.652-1, recommends that the alternative BSS earth station antenna radiation pattern in An
24、nex 1 may be used, under certain circumstances, in bilateral/multilateral negotiations and interference impact assessment of new or modified assignments in the Region 2 Plan or Regions 1 and 3 List of additional uses without having any regulatory impact on the application of relevant provisions of R
25、R Appendix 30, as emphasized in recognizing b) above. NOTE This Recommendation applies to antennas with an effective antenna aperture ranging from 55 cm to 75 cm. (For small antennas less than 55 cm, it is difficult to obtain improved radiation characteristics. For large antennas greater than 75 cm,
26、 there is no need for a special design to obtain an improved radiation pattern as compared to Recommendation ITU-R BO.1213.) Rec.
