Modeling C-Band Co-Channel Interference from Aeromacs Omni-Directional Antennas to Mobile Satellite Service Feeder Uplinks

By National Aeronautics and Space Administration

A new C-band (5091 to 5150 MHz) airport communications system designated as Aeronautical Mobile Airport Communications System (AeroMACS) is being planned under the Federal Aviation Administration s NextGen program. An interference analysis software program, Visualyse Professional (Transfinite Systems Ltd), is being utilized to provide guidelines on limitations for AeroMACS transmitters to avoid interference with other systems. A scenario consisting of a single omni-directional transmitting antenna at each of the major contiguous United States airports is modeled and the steps required to build the model are reported. The results are shown to agree very well with a previous study. Wilson, Jeffrey D. Glenn Research Center WBS 031102.02.03.02.0677.09
