Interference experiments between fixed-satellite and terrestrial radio-relay services

Abstract

To resolve interference problems between fixed-satellite and terrestrial radio relay services and expand coordination areas between the two services, theoretical and experimental studies were carried out. Theoretical D/U values calculation formulas between the two systems were derived, interference data from 4 GHz and 11 GHz band terrestrial radio-relay systems were obtained by a measuring system mounted on a vehicle. By comparing those results, it becomes clear that the ensemble interference reduction factors for 4 GHz and 11 GHz bands are around 20 dB, which is mixed values of attenuation and reflection from big buildings in urban areas.
