ÖVE/ÖNORM EN 303980 V1.3.1

The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements for fixed and in-motion Earth Stations communicating with non-geostationary satellite systems (NEST) in the 11 GHz to 14 GHz FSS frequency bands, which have the following characteristics: - The NEST is designed for both in-motion and stationary operation. - The NEST operates in-motion on various platforms such as trains, maritime vessels, aircraft and other vehicles and, therefore, may be subject to occasional disturbances and interruptions in the satellite link. - The NEST is operating as part of a satellite system used for the provision of broadband communications. - The NEST is comprised of all the equipment, electrical and mechanical, from the antenna itself to the interface with other communications equipment on a mobile platform. - The NEST comprises one or more emitters and the system overview as given in Figure 1 should be interpreted accordingly.
