2.1.3 Interference

The antenna unit must be mounted as far as possible away from the/HF antennas, communication/navigations, VSAT systems and any high power radio transmitter (including other Inmarsat-based systems).

Radar

It is difficult to provide the exact minimum distance between a radar and the antenna unit due to different type of radars in terms of power, radiation pattern and operating frequency band.

The antenna unit is recommended to be at least ±15⁰ from the radar’s vertical beam.

The minimum radar distance indicates the minimum distance between the closest point of the radar and the closest surface of the antenna radome. This distance is determined by the radar, transmit frequency and the power.

Proprietary Information Not To Be Disclosed Without Written Authorisation From

Other L-Band Systems

Typical L-Band satellite communication equipment should be able to operate in close proximity without loss of performance ( Refer to Section 2.1.4 Distance to obstruction objects). It is to be noticed that such equipment typically includes GPS antennas, and that it can be necessary to use the typical minimum distance of typically 5 meter.

2.1.4 Obstruction

When locating the antenna, it is very important to ensure that there is a clear line-of-sight to the satellite for all the satellite elevation angles in the region in which the vessel will operate.

The antenna moves in azimuth 360⁰ and in roll and pitch down to -25⁰ to ensure constant tracking even in heavy sea. Any obstructions within this arc can cause performance degradations on the signal quality. The amount of degradation depends on the size of the obstruction and distance from the antenna. The table below is a guide line on the object size, at a given distance from the antenna that gives limited degradation.

Object Distance
