The bandwidth of a Jerusalem AMC was investigated based on the equivalent circuit model. Using the circuit model and the derivative of the admittance(Y'), the relation between the bandwidth and various circuit parameters was analyzed. It was shown that the substrate thickness and permeability enhance the bandwidth whereas the loadings on FSS grid degrade the bandwidth. Among the two loadings, the capacitive loading had better bandwidth characteristics than the inductive loading. AMC with single polarization was suggested to relax the bandwidth degradation by the inductive loading.

Under Resolution 122 (Rev. WRC-03), ITU-R is invited to study, as a matter of urgency, power limitations applicable for HAPS ground stations to facilitate sharing with space station receivers in the bands 47.2-47.5 GHz and 47.9-48.2 GHz. However, there have been no studies on this issue. Recommendation ITU-R SF.1481-1 which was developed during past study period, provides methodology and system characteristics for analyzing the sharing feasibility between systems in the FS using HAPS and systems in the FSS. System characteristics for a typical HAPS in the bands above are also given in Recommendation ITU-R F.1500. This paper provides the results on power limitations applicable for HAPS ground stations in accordance with Resolution 122 (Rev. WRC-03). As already shown in ITU-R Recommendation the results show that a sufficient separation distance is required for sharing between HAPS ground stations and FSS satellite systems. We obtain some examples of the sharing conditions considering reducing the power level of HAPS ground stations and using the antenna beam pattern with the low sidelobe to decrease the interference level affecting FSS satellite receiver.
