12、 the direct readout of data and playback of recorded data; b) that interference criteria are needed to ensure that systems can be designed to achieve adequate performance in the presence of interference and to assist in developing criteria for sharing bands among systems, including those operating i
13、n other services; c) that spacecraft operating in the Earth exploration-satellite and meteorological-satellite services may utilize low-Earth orbits; d) that performance objectives for the relevant space-to-Earth data transmission systems operating in the Earth exploration-satellite and meteorologic
14、al-satellite services are specified in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1159 for several frequency bands; e) that, although specific data transmission systems may have performance objectives that differ from those recommended for the Earth exploration-satellite and meteorological-satellite services, all syst
15、ems operating in those services should accommodate interference criteria greater than or equal to the permissible levels of interference that are recommended for the services; f) that interference criteria for data transmission systems in the Earth exploration-satellite and meteorological-satellite

21、interfering signal powers (dBW) in the reference bandwidths are specified for reception at elevation angles 25; in all other cases the minimum elevation angle is 5. Notes to Table 1 NOTE 1 The aggregate interfering signal power level that may be exceeded for no more than x% of the time, where x is l
22、ess than 20% but greater than the specified short-term time percentage (0.0125% of the time), may be determined by interpolation between the specified values using a logarithmic scale (base 10) for percentage of time and a linear scale for interfering signal power density (dB). NOTE 2 The interferen
23、ce criteria are specified with respect to the percentage of time of reception by the earth station. Thus, receiver performance statistics associated with reception from one particular satellite (i.e. cumulative distribution of bit error rate (BER) are the same as the statistics for reception from se
24、veral similar satellites. The total time of reception includes time periods associated with initial signal acquisition (i.e. before and during local ascension of the satellite), receiver synchronization of the data, and synchronized reception of data. Consequently, because the time required for init
25、ial signal acquisition and synchronization may constitute up to several tens of seconds out of total satellite visibility periods averaging on the order of nine minutes, the analyses of short-term performance that are presented in Annex 1 (i.e. performance exceeded for all but a small percentage of
26、time p, p 1%) assume that the satellite is located at the minimum elevation angle associated with the applicable performance objective. This yields the BER performance exceeded for all but p% of the time because Eb/N0 and BER are monotonically related to elevation angle. Rec. ITU-R SA.1026-5 3 Notes
27、 to Table 1 (end): NOTE 3 The elevation angle exceeded for all but 20% of the time during reception is approximated well by the angle exceeded for all but 20% of the time that the satellite is visible above the minimum elevation angle specified in the performance objective. This approximation is mad
28、e in the performance analyses presented in Annex 1 because the underlying cumulative time error cannot exceed 1% (i.e. p% of the time) and the associated total error in satellite antenna gain, free space loss, excess path loss, and earth station parameter values are negligible. The resulting elevati
29、on angle that is exceeded for all but 20% of the time of reception yields the BER performance exceeded for all but 20% of the time because Eb/N0 and BER are monotonically related to elevation angle. NOTE 4 For frequency bands other than those of Table 1, the interference criterion of Recommendation
30、ITU-R SA.514 is applicable. Annex 1 Basis for determination of interference criteria 1 Introduction This Annex presents, on a band-by-band basis, the parameters used with the methodology of Recommendation ITU-R SA.1022 in the derivation of interference criteria for the Earth exploration-satellite an
31、d meteorological-satellite services using the performance objectives specified in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1159. The performance analyses for a number of reference systems are summarized in Table 2. In all cases, the representative systems utilize satellites in highly-inclined circular orbits. It sho
32、uld be noted that in Table 2 and 2 to 7 below, the terms Mmin, Mmin (long-term) and Mmin (short-term) are to be understood in the sense of the methodology described in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1022, i.e. “the smallest interference-free margin for which the victim system must be fully protected”. It s
