Boeing indicates in its application that it will protect geostationary satellite orbit (``GSO'') FSS satellite networks in the 14 GHz band from harmful interference from AMSS transmissions by controlling the aggregate equivalent isotropically radiated power (``e.i.r.p.'') spectral density along the GSO arc to the level required for routinely processed VSAT applications pursuant to Sections 25.134 and 25.209 of the Commission's rules. Boeing further indicates that it will protect GSO FSS satellite networks operating in the 12 GHz band by using space-to-Earth e.i.r.p. spectral density levels that are equal to, or less than, those previously coordinated for the Telstar 6 satellite with adjacent satellite operators. Boeing also states that the cumulative interference from its AMSS service

Boeing indicates that down-link transmissions for its receive-only service will cause no more interference than down-link transmissions to fixed earth stations that might otherwise be using the same FSS transponders. Boeing also requests a waiver of Section 25.134 of our rules. Section 25.134 includes thresholds, based on the power radiated from transmitters, for routine processing of networks of very small aperture terminals (``VSATs'') operating in the Ku-band. Boeing observes that its proposed service does not necessarily fit within the Commission's definition of a VSAT network. Boeing acknowledges, however, that its service would operate using space-to-Earth power levels that

Probability of Exceeding Aggregate Off-Axis e.i.r.p.

The Commission has proposed to add an allocation for AMSS downlinks in the 11.7-12.2 GHz band, but there is no AMSS allocation in the band at the present time. Hence, ViaSat requests a waiver to permit operations in the 11.7-12.2 GHz band on a non-interference, non-protected basis.

ViaSat argues that lack of central network management allows each antenna user to adjust the power and bandwidth usage of the antenna, which could lead to aggregate power levels in excess of the off-axis EIRP density mask set defined by Sections 25.209 and 25.134 of the rules and result in interference to adjacent GSO FSS satellites. We find that Raysat's application, as amended, adequately addresses this concern.

  • Nature of Service:Domestic Aeronautical Mobile-Satellite Service Under our own motion we reconsider condition number 5837 and remove this condition from the Boeing authorization. In attachment #2 to Supplemental Technical Information supplied to the Commission June 30, 2003, Boeing indicated that the system would maintain the aggregate off-axis interference envelope 99.99% of the time below the limits of Section 25.209 and 25.134 for mis-pointing, power control and antenna pattern variations. The intent of condition number 5837 is met by inclusion of the alignment of the orbital arc under mis-pointing and antenna variation requirements. Therefore this condition is not necessary. We remind the Boeing Company that its operation is on a non-harmful interference basis. SITE ID: 1 800 METS ABOARD AIRCRAFT OPERATING IN

At the time the Commission started this review, its policy was to require non-routine earth station applicants to submit a technical study demonstrating that the proposed earth station will not cause unacceptable interference to 2�-complaint operations. The preferred form of that technical study was the Adjacent Satellite Interference Analysis (ASIA) program as described in Section 25.134(b). This analysis was often difficult and time consuming to perform, because the information needed for the analysis is not readily available from any one source, and the ASIA results can be subject to interpretation. Some of the data needed for ASIA are available only from individual satellite operators. Further, the operation of the non-compliant earth station antenna must still be

Section 25.134 of the rules establishes specific limits for individual VSAT earth station antenna input power densities. The power-density limits are designed to limit the interference power received at space stations adjacent to the target satellite. Contention protocol use may result in aggregate power densities in the adjacent satellite receivers that exceed the limits produced by a single VSAT transmitter operating with
