Survey of Potential Radio Frequency Interference Sources.
Abstract
This report is a survey of the potential Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) sources that are currently affecting the analysis of data from the SEASAT Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) and those sources that could affect the design of the Large Antenna Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (LAMMR) for the National Oceanic Satellite System (NOSS). The SEASAT SMMR survey is limited to the 6.5 to 6.7 GHz channel and to emitters on the West Coast of the United States and Canada where RFI has been encountered. The NOSS LAMMR survey covers all of the potential frequencies of interest; 3.0 to 7.6 GHz, 10.5 to 11.0 GHz, 13.4 to 14.0 GHz, 14.5 to 14.7 GHz, 17.0 to 18.8 GHz, 20.8 to 22.4 GHz, 34.0 to 35.5 GHz, 36.0 to 37.0 Ghz, 76.0 to 77.0 GHz, and 88.0 to 94.0 GHz. Also included are excerpts from the current international frequency allocation tables and excerpts from the U.S. position which was presented at the 1979 World Administration Radio Conference (WARC).
