Modeling Shows 5G/FSS Coexistence in 12 GHz Band: Researchers

Terrestrial 5G networks with directional base stations can coexist in the 12 GHz band by dynamically selecting the radius of an exclusion zone around an incumbent fixed satellite service (FSS) receiver, Virginia Tech and George Mason University researchers said Tuesday…

in docket 20-443. They developed modeling for potential harmful interference between 5G radio links and incumbent fixed non-geostationary orbit FSS receivers in the 12 GHz band and applied that to the topographical parameters and population density of Blacksburg, Virginia, the researchers said. While the modeling is in its pilot stage and was limited to Blacksburg, the results are useful in spectrum sharing discussions, they added.
