Title: International Civil Aviation Organization Regional Preparatory Group RPG Meeting for World Radiocomm
1International Civil Aviation OrganizationRegional
Preparatory Group (RPG) Meeting for World
Radiocommunication Conference 2007 (WRC-2007),
ACP Working Group B and F and NSP SSG Meetings.
Bangkok, Thailand, 21-25 February
2005.RPG/ACP/NSP pres4
- Agenda Item 5
- SPECIFICS ON FM BROADCAST INTERFERENCE AND LATEST
WORK - presentation by
- Steve Mitchell
2A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
- Changes to ITU Radio Regulations
- recognition of potential interference to
aeronautical systems - studies within the ITU
- initial studies
- further enhanced studies
- final ITU recommendations
3GENERAL TYPES OF INTERFERENCE
- Four types of interference to consider
- Type A
- A1
- A2
- Type B
- B1
- 2 signal
- 3signal
- B2
4DIFFICULTIES WITH ILS/VOR/COM
- Extensive testing
- ILS/VOR receivers
- 3rd order intermodulation
- saturation
- Com receivers
- ICAO Annex 10 SARPs requirements
- 3rd order 2 signal
- Desensitisation
5DIFFICULTIES WITH GBASAND VDL 4
- Testing of GBAS and VDL 4 receivers
- same mechanisms apply as for ILS/VOR/COM
- avionics manufacturers tests above 112 MHz
- split in desensitisation requirements
- similar A1and B1 criteria as ILS/VOR
- ICAO Annex 10 SARPs requirements
- 3rd order 2 signal
- Desensitisation
6Co-ordination
- Why co-ordination?
- Between FM broadcasters
- mutual sharing
- Between FM broadcasters and aeronautical
- avoid interference to aeronautical services
- Between aeronautical and FM broadcasters
- avoid potential problems
7Example of co-ordination process
- Example of an approach to co-ordination
- European example
- inside a State
- databases
- computer tools
- agreement mechanism
- between States
- LEGBAC/EBU
