1、 Rec. ITU-R S.1525-1 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R S.1525-1 Impact of interference from the Sun into a geostationary-satellite orbit fixed-satellite service link (Question ITU-R 236/4) (2001-2002) The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that Sun transits are a natural phenomena in geostationary

2、-satellite orbit fixed-satellite service (GSO FSS) networks, which occur over a period of 3-9 days twice a year, depending on the antenna diameter; b) that GSO FSS earth station operators and customers plan for the Sun transits and implement appropriate means to minimize their impact; c) that GSO FS

3、S earth station operators should have a methodology available to analyse the magnitude of the interference from the Sun and the timing of the interference events, recommends 1 that, in designing GSO FSS links, the methodology given in Annex 1 may be used to assess the level of carrier-to-noise ratio

During these Sun transits, the microwave radiation from the Sun acts as a source of interference, increasing the effective noise temperature of 2 Rec. ITU-R S.1525-1 the sat

6、ellite link and therefore degrading the link performance. If the amount of degradation exceeds the clear-sky margin of the link, then the link will suffer an outage usually termed a Sun-outage. For frequencies below about 30 GHz, emission from the Sun can be considered as having three components: th

7、e thermal emission from the “quiet” Sun, a slowly-varying component related to the number and size of sunspots, and occasional intense bursts of emission due to Sun flares. All three components are time-varying, and so it is extremely difficult to use the Sun as a reference source for accurate evalu

8、ation of the performance of earth station antennas. In the satellite communication bands, the thermal emission from the quiet Sun decreases with increasing frequency. The emission is generally unpolarized. Sunspots are magnetic regions on the Sun, appearing as dark spots on its surface. They typical

9、ly last for several days, although very large ones may last for several weeks. Although the number of sunspots varies greatly from day to day, there is an underlying pattern with a period of approximately 11 years. Every 11 years, the Sun undergoes a period of activity called the “Sun maximum”, foll

10、owed by a period of quiet called the “Sun minimum”. During the Sun maximum there are many sunspots, Sun flares, and coronal mass ejections, all of which can affect communications and the weather on Earth. There is a rough correlation between the total solar flux and the number of sunspots. As this i

11、ncreased flux is associated with several small areas of the Suns surface, it is unsafe to assume a uniform brightness distribution across the face of the Sun. In fact, if the GSO earth station has an antenna beamwidth smaller than the apparent diameter of the Sun, then it could experience varying le

12、vels of interference during a single Sun transit event. Emission due to sunspots is somewhat circularly polarized, although this effect is diluted by the random polarization of the thermal emissions from the quiet Sun. Sun flares or bursts may double or triple the Sun flux, occasionally reaching fac

13、tors of 100 times the usual level. In the satellite communication bands, most events are fairly short 5 min to about an hour. Occurrence is unpredictable, but as already noted the events are more frequent around the Sun maximum. Typically there could be a couple of events per day. The apparent diame

14、ter of the Sun at microwave frequencies is slightly larger than the optical diameter. Also, the Earth-Sun distance varies slightly during the year, resulting in a variation in the apparent diameter of the Sun and thus in apparent brightness temperature. However these effects are small compared with

15、other uncertainties (such as the sunspot number), and may thus be neglected. A reasonable estimate of the apparent diameter of the Sun at the equinox is 0.53. Rec. ITU-R S.1525-1 3 Although the foregoing material indicates that significant and unpredictable variations exist in the effective level of

16、 the Sun flux in the satellite communication bands, a number of simple models have been proposed for the average level. These models are adequate for assessment of the typical levels of interference which can be expected during Sun transits. One expression for the brightness temperature of the quiet

17、 Sun at microwave frequencies is: 75.0000120= fTSunwhere: TSun: equivalent brightness temperature (K) f : frequency (GHz) : factor to account for the polarization of the emissions from the Sun, which could be taken to be 0.5 for the reasons given above. This model gives a value of around 21 000 K fo

18、r the quiet Sun at a frequency of 4 GHz. By comparison, a typical value at sunspot maximum would be 90 000 K. 1 General approach The Sun transit of a GSO receiver is a phenomenon that can be easily assessed as the geometry is well known. The method described in detail in Recommendation ITU-R BO.1506

19、 which evaluates the impact of solar inteference into broadcasting-satellite service (BSS) links may be used also in the case of FSS links. That Recommendation fully describes the Sun transit effect on GSO FSS link budgets. The impact of Sun transit is not a fade but an increase of the system noise

20、temperature that can be significant for some low margin, low noise GSO links. 2 Application of the methodology to different antenna sizes The detailed approach described in Recommendation ITU-R BO.1506 has been applied to different antenna sizes. Two possible approaches could be used to generate the

21、 solar noise temperatures for the off-axis angle and the azimuth angle as seen at the focal point of an FSS earth station antenna: Full simulation of the motion of the Sun, using for example the algorithm developed in Annex 2. A simplified approach based on the fact that the declination angle of the

22、 Sun changes at approximately 0.4 per day at the equinoxes and its hour angle changes at approximately 0.25 per min. The results in Figs. 1 to 6 are typical of those produced using these methods. In all the cases the initial noise temperature used is 150 K and the antenna patterns used are according

30、d for a GSO earth station 1 Introduction GSO FSS earth station operators have accepted that Sun interference is a natural phenomenon that occurs for a short period 0 to 21 days before or after the equinoxes, depending on whether the station is located in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere. 8 Rec. I

31、TU-R S.1525-1 Most operators use simplified algorithms such as the one given below, which does not require a specific carrier link budget, to estimate the day and times when a Sun transit will occur. With this information, they can take proactive action to mitigate the effects of Sun interference. 2

32、 Satellite ephemeris data Satellite operators use a number of different mathematical models to represent the movement of a satellite. A simplified approach was developed by one GSO satellite operator whereby, instead of computing all physical effects acting on a satellite, these effects are defined

33、in terms of three equations. This approximation contains 11 parameters obtained with a least-squares curve fit. It has been demonstrated that this simplified model approximates the full prediction results to better than 0.01 for a period of up to seven days. In this approach, the three equations tha

38、ec. ITU-R S.1525-1 9 With the satellite position defined as a function of time in terms of a geocentric system aligned with the Greenwich Meridian, the satellite position with respect to the earth station and the appropriate pointing angles are calculated as follows: r = rsat rsta(4) rx= rsat cos(sa

40、 The calculation of the earth station coordinates are generally known in terms of its geodetic latitude, longitude and height above a reference ellipsoid (altitude). This reference ellipsoid is based on an equatorial radius and a flattening constant. The earth station position is calculated in terms

41、 of the radial distance from the rotational axis of the Earth Raand the axial distance north of the equatorial plane of the Earth, Rz, which are calculated as follows: Ra= (R + h) cos(sta) (8) Rz= R(1 f )2+ h sin(sta) (9) 2/12)(sin()2(1staequffRR= (10) where: h : geodetic height of the earth station

46、lane and the vernal equinox is the reference direction. The vernal equinox or The First Point of Aries, is the intersection of the ecliptic (mean plane of the Earths orbit) with the celestial equator, at which the Sun crosses the equator from south to north.

Since the Earth also circles the Sun in a one-year period, the Sun day is not the true period of the Earths rotation. The Earth travels 1/365 of the way around its or
