Protection ratio between ATSC digital broadcasting and WiBro systems

Abstract

It is crucial to derive a protection ratio between two communication systems before deploying a new communication system in the vicinity of frequencies occupied by the existing communication systems. In this paper, computer simulation based protection ratio estimating scheme between ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) digital broadcasting systems and WiBro (Wireless Broadband Internet) systems is proposed. The Proposed scheme can be effectively exploited when a new communication services are deployed in the surplus frequency band after the expiration of the analog television broadcasting scheduled.
