Additionally R&S®Satellite Link Planner covers ASI and intermodulation occurring in downlink and uplink com-munications. On the one hand ground stations can receive significant signal power levels from other satellites. On the other hand adjacent satellite can receive and broad-cast heavy uplink signals from ground stations. Both types of disruption are included in the link budget calculations helping users to consider all possibilities which can occur through a transmission in satellite bands of interest.

Besides SATCOM channel impairments R&S®Satellite Link Planner uses frequency coordination limits defined for sce-nario optimization.

FIG 1 shows an analyzed multi-carrier scenario with its carrier-to-noise ratio results in well-presented charts and diagrams containing calculations for the described impairments.

A detailed link budget analysis overview function is avail-able as well as shown in FIG 1. Here the carrier-wise band-width and power consumption (PEB) is detailed presented.

Systems using R&S®Satellite Link Planner uses these link budget calculations to verify multi-carrier scenarios being managed by the user as shown in FIG 2. Users can easily generate their own multi-carrier scenarios with all neces-sary parameters that way.
