Interference Analysis of NGSO Constellation to GEO Satellite Communication System Based on Spatio-Temporal Slices

The co-frequency interference (CFI) of the nongeostationary orbit (NGSO) constellation to the geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) satellite Internet of Things (IoT) system is an nonnegligible problem. In this article, based on the calculation method of the NGSO constellation satellite distribution state period, we propose a global characteristic method to analyze the CFI of the NGSO constellation to the GEO satellite IoT system by spatio-temporal slices. In order to analyze and evaluate the global characteristic and overall situation of interference, the temporal and spatial cut set of interference is established by fragmenting time and gridding space. The correctness of the proposed NGSO constellation satellite distribution state period is verified by taking the OneWeb constellation's interference to the SINOSAT-5 satellite communication system as the simulation scenario. Furthermore, the global interference characteristic of the OneWeb constellation to the SINOSAT-5 satellite communication system is analyzed with the method mentioned above in the range of 80 degrees E-140 degrees E and 0 degrees N-50 degrees N. The results show that the analysis method can reflect the overall situation of the CFI of the NGSO constellation to the GEO satellite IoT system.
