Title: MEASURING TERRESTRIAL RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE AT ORBIT ALTITUDES
Abstract: An experiment has been designed to measure and characterize the effect of man-made interference on satellite receivers at orbital altitudes. The experiment, as designed, requires dedicated hardware on a spacecraft of specified orbit and will measure (within the frequency range from 400 MHz to 12.4 GHz) peak levels of interference in cells dimensioned in space, time, and frequency. The experiment will provide data indicative of some of the statistical characteristics of interference levels at satellite orbital altitudes and will provide designers of satellite communications links with new facilities for the prediction and prevention of interference problems.
