DESCRIPTION
"System for distributed mapping of atmospheric attenuation in satellite communications"
Technical Field
The present invention describes a system for distributed mapping of atmospheric attenuation in satellite communications .
Background art
A typical Radio Frequency (RE) propagation model provides information about the expected attenuations that a communication link suf fers . Predicting the attenuations of satellite communications is even more hard to obtain due to the di f ficulty of isolating the di f ferent attenuation phenomena ( Ionospheric scintillation, Rain attenuation, Gaseous Absorption, ... ) . Moreover, there are other attenuating ef fects on the ground soil such as di f fraction, shadowing and multi-path, that depend on the urban environment where the receiver is located .
Presently, there are several propagation models that quanti fy the attenuation that a satellite signal suf fers in urban and rural environments for di f ferent frequency ranges such as the Okumura model , the Hata model , the COST-231 model , Ericsson 9999 , etc . The models used for other existing bands are speci fic to certain environment characteristics ( e . g . urban canyon or open sky environment ) . As a result , there is a need for more realistic model that takes in to account the various local conditions a vehicle faces . Moreover, there is the need for the model to be adapted in relation to local conditions to be more accurate in the
presence of any set of attenuation ef fects , Besides the di f ferent attenuation phenomena at ground level , this modeling also should reflect the various atmospheric attenuations that impact the signal .
To distribute the correction service information by satellite , there are broadcast satellites used that are located on geostationary positions around the globe . Their technical conditions ( e . g . signal power/ strength) are defined by the service provider . So , the goal of evaluating the loss of signal over the earth' s orbit , in particular the signal attenuation on over the atmosphere , can also be determined by the Free Space Path Loss ( FSPL ) . Nowadays , the existing models that may help to estimate the said signal attenuation over the atmosphere , have been derived from information of speci fic receiving stations that are distributed on earth at fixed positions . In between, these fixed stations estimations are made to define the signal attenuation, but their precision is limited .
The proposed system aims to overcome the above-mentioned limitations of know prior art as described hereafter .
