Abstract

This paper addresses an in-depth analysis of the interference produced to the fixed service (FS) by the earth stations on board vessels (ESVs) operating with geostationary satellites and proposes a new methodology for the development of coordination areas around the FS receivers, taking into account parameters such as the velocity of the ESVs and their frequency of passage from specific locations. Simulations performed in realistic interference conditions prove the validity of the new methodology, which can constitute the basis for the development of new methods for the coordination between the fixed service and the ESVs contributing, by this way, significantly to the harmonic coexistence of the two services.
