ITU-R F.385-10 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R F.385-10 Radio-frequency channel arrangements for fixed wireless systems operating in the 7 110-7 900 MHz band (Question ITU-R 247/5) (1959-1963-1978-1982-1986-1990-1992-1994-200
9、1-2005-2007-2012) Scope This Recommendation provides RF channel arrangements for fixed wireless systems (FWSs) operating in the 7 GHz band. The main text of as well as Annexes 1 to 5 to this Recommendation present a number of RF arrangements with channel separation of 3.5, 5, 7, 14, and 28 MHz (incl
10、uding the possible use of 2 28 MHz adjacent channels) in the frequency range 7 110-7 900 MHz. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that FWSs at data rates up to 155 Mbit/s, including synchronous digital hierarchy bit rates, may operate in the 7 GHz band; b) that frequency bands 300 MH
11、z wide may be available for such systems; c) that the availability of frequency bands in the range from 7 110 MHz to 7 990 MHz differs in various countries; d) that economy may be achieved if several go and return channels are connected to one common transmit-receive antenna; e) that many interferin
12、g effects can be minimized by a carefully planned arrangement of the radio frequencies in FWSs employing several RF channels; f) that digital techniques such as cross-polar interference cancellers (XPIC) may significantly contribute to the cross-polar discrimination improvement factor (XIF, defined
13、in Recommendation ITU-R F.746), thus counteracting multipath propagation-induced depolarization; g) that, when very high capacity links (e.g. twice Synchronous Transfer Mode-1(STM-1) are required, further economy may be achieved using system bandwidths wider than the recommended channel separation,
14、associated to high efficient modulation formats, recommends 1 that the preferred RF channel arrangement for several FWSs, operating in the 7 GHz band, should be derived as follows (see Fig. 1 and Note 1): Let 0f be the frequency of the centre of the band of frequencies occupied (MHz); nf be the cent
15、re frequency of one RF channel in the lower half of this band (MHz); nf be the centre frequency of one RF channel in the upper half of this band (MHz), then the frequencies (MHz) of the individual channels with 7 MHz channel separation are expressed by the following relationships (see Fig. 1a): lowe

20、7 550 to 7 850 MHz) (see Note 2); 4 that the actual channel arrangement and antenna polarization should be agreed between the administrations concerned; 5 that Annexes 1 to 5 provide RF channel arrangements which may be considered for use by administrations; 6 that, when very high capacity links are
21、 required and network coordination permits, with the agreement of the administrations concerned, the use of any two adjacent 28 MHz channels specified in recommends 1 is possible, for wider bandwidth system, with centre frequency lying in the central point of the distance between the two 28 MHz adja
22、cent channels; NOTE 1 Care should be taken to the outermost channels that might exceed the band limits. NOTE 2 The RF channel arrangement with f0= 7 700 MHz overlaps some of the channel arrangements mentioned in Recommendation ITU-R F.386. Annex 1 RF channel arrangement in the bands 7 125-7 425 MHz
23、and 7 425-7 725 MHz 1 This Annex describes a RF channel arrangement for low, medium and high capacity digital FWSs, operating in the bands 7 125-7 425 MHz and 7 425-7 725 MHz. The RF channel arrangement is shown in Fig. 2 and is derived as follows: Let f0be the frequency of the centre of the band of
24、 frequencies occupied (MHz); fnbe the centre frequency of one RF channel in the lower half of the band (MHz); nf be the centre frequency of one RF channel in the upper half of the band (MHz), then the frequencies (MHz) of the individual channels, with duplex separation of 154 MHz, are expressed by t

30、ach digital radio-frequency channel. 4 The preferred centre frequency f0is: 7 275 MHz for the band 7 125-7 425 MHz; 7 575 MHz for the band 7 425-7 725 MHz. NOTE 1 56 MHz channels may be provided according to recommends 6 of the present Recommendation. Their centre frequencies may be calculated as fo

It should be noted, that adjacent channel numbers cannot be used on the same physical link due to channel overlap.
32、NOTE 2 When additional digital radio frequencies interleaved 28 MHz channels between those of the main pattern of Fig. 2 are required, they can be realized using the same f0and the equation reported in Note 1. Annex 2 RF channel arrangement in the band 7 435-7 750 MHz with channel spacings of 5, 10
33、or 20 MHz 1 This Annex describes a RF channel arrangement suitable for digital FWSs up to 19 Mbit/s (1.544 12) and allows coexistence of digital systems and medium capacity analogue systems spaced on a 20 MHz interval operating in the band 7 435-7 750 MHz. The RF channel arrangement is shown in Fig.
34、 3 and is derived as follows: Let f0be the frequency of the centre of the band of frequencies occupied (MHz); fnbe the centre frequency of one RF channel in the lower half of the band (MHz); nf be the centre frequency of one RF channel in the upper half of the band (MHz), then the frequencies (MHz)

36、be in the other half of the band. 3 The centre frequency f0is 7 592.5 MHz. 4 For all RF channels in the same half of the band, the same polarization may be used or, where it is necessary because of the existence of interference, different polarizations may be utilized. Where it is possible, both pol
37、arizations may be utilized for each digital RF channel. 5 Digital RF channels for 12.6 Mbit/s (1.544 8) or 19 Mbit/s (1.544 12) systems, can be realized by use of a 10 or 20 MHz interval. Annex 3 RF channel arrangement in the band 7 110-7 750 MHz with a channel spacing of 28 MHz This Annex describes
38、 a RF channel arrangement for the 7 GHz band. The arrangement provides for up to ten go and ten return channels, each accommodating about 140 Mbit/s or the synchronous digital hierarchy bit rates subdivided in two groups of five go and five return channels relating to the lower part and the higher p
39、art of the band. The RF channel arrangement is as shown in Fig. 4 and is derived as follows: Let f0lbe the frequency at the centre of the lower part of the band: f0l= 7 275 MHz, f0hbe the frequency at the centre of the higher part of the band: f0h= 7 597 MHz, fnlbe the centre frequency of one RF cha

When the equipment and network char
42、acteristics permit, the co-channel frequency reuse arrangement can be employed, with the agreement of the administration concerned, for improving spectral efficiency. Annex 4 RF channel arrangement in the band 7 425-7 900 MHz with a channel spacing up to 28 MHz11 This Annex describes a RF channel ar

46、 MHz. The 28 MHz and 14 MHz channels are centred on the 7 MHz pattern of recommends 1 and 4, whilst the 7 MHz channels are interleaved with an offset of 3.5 MHz. The frequencies (MHz) of individual channels are expressed by the following relationships: for 14 MHz channels: fn= f0 241.5 + 14 n nf = f
47、0+ 3.5 + 14 n where: n = 1 to 16 for 7 MHz channels: fn= f0 238 + 7 n nf = f0+ 7 + 7 n Rec.
