Abstract

Satellite DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) uses the Cap Filler(GF) that provides a service to the wave shade area of the satellite signal that is a non-line of sight area. The GF is the repeater and the Satellite DMB Systems certainly must construct the GF Network toguarantee the movement reception of the terminal. As the coverage of the GF is formed the Cell or Sector, when the multiple GF is established to be contiguous, the problem of the interference will be able to occur. This paper describes the Satellite DMB system and the GF, and it investigate the design fundamentals plan of the GF Network that it will be able to reduce this problem. As a result, in case of the distance that GF and terminal unit is above 4.6Km, service is not provided because of quality degradation according to mutual interference.

위성 DMB는 비가시거리 지역인 위성신호의 전파음영지역이 존재하고, 이러한 지역에 서비스를 제공하기 위해 Gap Filler(GF)를 사용한다. GF는 중계기로써 위성 DMB System은 단말기의 이동수신을 보장하기 위해 GF Network을 반드시 구축해야 하며 GF의 커버리지는 Cell or Sector를 형성하게 되어 다수의 GF가 인접하여 설치되면 간섭 등의 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 위성 DMB 시스템과 GF에 대해 살펴보고, 이러한 문제를 경감할 수 있는 GF Network의 설계 기초 방안에 관해 검토하였다. 그 결과, GF와 단말기간의 거리가 4.6Km을 벗어나면 상호 간섭으로 작용하여 품질열화가 발생하여 서비스 제공이 어려워짐을 확인하였다.
