Abstract

In order to design M/W(microwave) short backhaul above 10 GHz to meet the increase in mobile traffic demand, the rain attenuation as well as the atmospheric conditions such as Earth bulge and Fresnel zone should be considered. In this paper, the path lengths have been estimated theoretically in various frequency bands using the Korean standard rain rate, and an example of path profile has been analyzed in urban area utilizing spectrum management intelligence system (SMIS). These derived minimum path lengths in various frequency bands are compared to the foreign them, and then will be proposed to improve the Korean minimum path length unitized to 10 km. This paper will provide useful information for microwave engineers in designing a M/W access link, and be utilized to make an efficient usage of high frequency bands for the short mobile broadband backhaul.

최근의 이동통신 트래픽의 증가 수요에 대처하기 위한 10 GHz 이상의 M/W(microwave) 이동통신용 단거리 백홀을 설계하기 위해서는 구축지점에서의 강우 페이드에 의한 감쇠와 어스 벌지 및 프레넬 존 등 지형적 대기조건을 종합적으로 고려해야 한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 국내 강우강도 표준 값을 이용하여 여러 주파수 대역에서 경로길이를 이론적으로 계산하고, SMIS (spectrum management intelligence system)를 활용한 대도심의 전파경로 프로파일을 분석한다. 이 결과를 토대로 해외의 최소 경로길이 기준과 비교분석을 행해 현재 모든 주파수에 대해 10 km로 정하고 있는 국내 기준 값을 주파수 대역별로 세분화하여 최소 경로길이를 제시한다. 본 논문의 결과는 국내 도시에서의 이동통신용 M/W 백홀 설계의 기본 데이터를 제공하여 고주파수 대역의 단거리 광대역 이동통신 백홀용으로 주파수의 유효이용을 촉진시키는데 유용하게 활용될 것이다.
