(This Recommendation is not intended to replace network-by-network frequency coordination); 4 that the performance objectives for GSO FSS links be calculated with and without interference to determine the percentage change in the unavailability due to the interference; 5 that in or
10、der to assess the impact of interference limits on all possible GSO FSS links the analysis should consider the effects in each separate rain region. ANNEX 1 Methodology for conducting parametric studies of the effects of time varying interference on GSO FSS networks Introduction In many ITU studies,
11、 interference can be modelled as additive thermal noise. For these studies it is valid to use the reduced set of parameters, in recommends 1, to model the GSO FSS link. This link description lends itself to parametric study because it requires few input parameters. These input parameters include: ea
12、rth station altitude, latitude, rain rate, angle to the GSO satellite, receive antenna polar-ization (circular, vertical, or horizontal), receive system temperature, receive frequency and receive antenna diameter; short-term performance objective for the link; link margins that are required to meet
13、the short-term performance objective of the link. Sensitivity analysis can be performed on each input separately and the results compiled for a representative sample distribution of GSO links. This type of analysis provides a complete description of the impact of interference on the entire potential
14、 of the GSO FSS industry. The system temperature is a total system temperature and includes all noise and interference contributions in the full link budget. For a calculation of uplink interference, into the GSO satellite, the earth station is the transmitter and the receiver is on the satellite. F
15、or a calculation of downlink interference the receiver is at the earth station. For processing satellites uplinks and downlinks can be analysed separately. For transparent satellite systems the downlink system temperature includes the uplink contribution. Specifically, the calculation of the total n
16、oise temperature of the satellite (uplink), Tsat(K), and total noise earth station temperatures, Te/s(K), can be derived from the following equations: Rec.

Above 10 GHz the interference analysis should take into account the simultaneous effects due to fading and interference. Recommendation ITU-R S.1323 includes a variety o
26、f methods for combining rain fade and interference. The interference analysis results can be carried out in a variety of ways including: calculating the change in availability due to the interference as a function of rain rate; setting interference limits or assessing regional impact based on the pe
27、rcentage of links that have unacceptable interference as a function of rain rate; varying the link margin or antenna diameter to determine GSO system costs required to mitigate interference; calculating the impact of the interference versus population in urban centres. An example of a distribution o
28、f rain rates for use in performing parametric studies is shown in Annex 2. ANNEX 2 An example of a distribution of rain rates in urban areas for use in performing parametric studies Links which are the most sensitive to non-GSO interference tend to have earth stations with the following characterist
29、ics: be located in regions with low rain fall and/or at high altitude; Rec. ITU-R S.1523 5 have low receive system noise temperatures; and can meet their performance requirement when having minimum clear-sky propagation margins. In order to identify where sensitive links might exist throughout the w
30、orld, an international database of urban population areas located by: latitude, longitude, rain rate and average altitude was created. The urban population information used to create the file was derived from data provided by the Population Division, Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the
31、United Nations. Average altitude information was taken from topographical data available from the United States of America National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The resulting file provides population, location, rain rate and altitude information for over 2 700 urban population centres. Th
32、e minimum population for classification as an urban centre was limited to 75 000 people (except for some few smaller island locations). The total population of the urban areas represented in the file represents about 40% of the total world population. Figure 1 graphically summarizes population in ur
33、ban centres by rain rate, and Fig. 2 graphically illustrates the number of urban areas having each rain rate. For reference, Table 1 shows the variation in urban centre altitude versus rain rate. The figures demonstrate that there are a significant number of cities with populations greater than 75 0
34、00 distributed with low rain rates. It has to be presumed that these urban areas will have satellite communication requirements similar to those of the rest of the world. 1523-0110 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130010100150200250300350Rain fall intensity (exceeded for 0.01% of an average year)
