    Rep. ITU-R M.2109 1 REPORT ITU-R M.2109 Sharing studies between IMT-Advanced systems and geostationary satellite networks in the fixed-satellite service in the 3 400-4 200 and 4 500-4 800 MHz frequency bands (2007) Executive summary This Report provides a summary of the sharing studies between IMT-Advanced systems and geostationary satellite networks in the fixed-satellite service (FSS) in the 3 400-4 200 and 4 500-4 800 MHz frequency bands. It was conducted by ITU-R in the framework of Agenda item 1.4 of WRC-07, in accordance with resolves 5 to Resolution 228 (Rev.WRC-03), as these bands were identified as candidate bands for future development of IMT-2000 and IMT-Advanced systems, as described in the Report ITU-R M.2079. The bands 3 400-4 200 MHz and 4 500-4 800 MHz are allocated worldwide on a primary basis to the FSS. This Report presents the results of the sharing studies performed between geostationary satellite networks in the FSS and IMT-Advanced systems. The following areas are covered in this Report: − Regulatory information. − Frequency usage by satellite services in these bands, provided on a global and regional basis. − FSS space and earth station deployments. − Considerations on potential identification of the 3 400-4 200 MHz and 4 500-4 800 MHz bands for IMT-Advanced. − Parameters of the systems considered in this Report. − Sharing studies (methodologies and results) between the two services from two aspects: − Interferences from IMT-Advanced transmitters to receiving FSS earth stations (in-band and adjacent band, and overdrive of the FSS receivers).

It is proved that the satellite segment is a necessary component of the national information infrastructure. From this position, the state and development trends of satellite telecommunication systems and satellite channel organization technologies are analyzed. It is shown that there are two ways to build a satellite segment: based on the use of leased resources of satellite operators operating in the satellite communications market; based on the resources of the national satellite communications system, which still needs to be created. It is shown that satellite telecommunication systems have a steady tendency to increase the number of spacecraft, until the launch of “heavyˮ satellites with a payload of more than 70 transponders and to increase the frequency resource. The diagram of satellites location density of in orbit is given. In the case of orientation to rent the resources of active spacecraft, the criteria for their selection is indicated. The arc of the geostationary orbit, on which the satellite should be selected, is calculated.

  • Viasat, Gazprom Space Systems, TMC Sign Strategic MOU Establishing a Multi-Year Roadmap of Cooperation to Bring In-Flight Connectivity Services to Russia
    Viasat, Gazprom Space Systems, TMC Sign Strategic MOU Establishing a Multi-Year Roadmap of Cooperation to Bring In-Flight Connectivity Services to Russia February 10, 2021 CARLSBAD, Calif. and SHCHELKOVO, Russia, Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Viasat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global communications company, Russian satellite operator Gazprom Space Systems (GSS) and Russian telecom operator TMC LLC (TMC) today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that aims to advance in-flight connectivity (IFC) for airlines flying into and over Russia. Russia is a key region for in-flight communications, comprised of 11 time zones, and providing, among other things, the shortest flight routes between North America and Asia, as well as between Europe and Asia. Per the MOU, the three companies will work in partnership to provide Russian and international airlines IFC service when flying into and over Russian Federation airspace. This cooperation is expected to offer Viasat's global airline customers roaming connectivity when flying over Russia; providing IFC services on domestic flights within Russia; and enabling Russian and international airlines access to roam onto the Viasat global satellite network when outside of Russian airspace. The MOU establishes an initial roaming agreement between current Viasat and GSS satellites, with Viasat operating in Russia leveraging TMC's telecom license. The partnership commenced with Viasat procuring access to Ku-band capacity on the GSS satellite, Yamal-401, while creating a path for Viasat and GSS to leverage capabilities on future satellite constellations. Keven Lippert, chief commercial officer at Viasat, commented, "Our MOU with GSS and TMC is an important next step in establishing a global IFC roaming alliance that will ensure airlines have access to uninterrupted, feature-rich IFC services when flying into and over Russia.
