High altitude platform station (HAPS) is an innovative technology which delivers some unique features, contrary to conventional communications networks, such as fixed satellite service (FSS). The absence of confirmed spectrum emission mask (SEM) of HAPS and its diversity to work within FSS networks are significant issues in evaluating the coexistence of HAPS and FSS. At this juncture, a practical SEM for HAPS gateway links is proposed which will endeavor to assess its functionality and its ability to coexist with FSS. HAPS SEM's impact on coexistence issues are exposed upon consideration of criteria such as MD, NFD and ACIR. These facets are well-described and their measured amounts for specific applicable SEMs are proposed. Therefore, reckoning process regarding these factors is ascertained. It must be said that the remarked criteria and their amounts for HAPS gateway links are unprecedented. The simulation parameters are well organized based upon International Telecommunication Union and World Radiocommunications Conferences periodicals. The aim of this article is to shed more light on the associated facets of the HAPS network spectrum and their impressions on HAPS and FSS networks coexistence. The assessments have been performed for HAPS gateway links in the 5,850---7,075 MHz frequency band where FSS uplink frequency band in C-band (5,925---6,725 MHz) partially intrude with HAPS gateway links. Therefore, HAPS gateway links channelization regarding FSS uplink channel is appraised and light is shed on the impact of HAPS and FSS coexisting in the same frequency band.
