1.4.10 Interference calculation

SEAMCAT calculates the probability of interference for generic (i.e. non-cellular) victim systems. Each sample of dRSS and iRSS generated during a simulation is compared against the relevant signal-to-noise criterion (specified in the scenario, such as C/N, C/N+I etc). The probability of interference is calculated for all events where the dRSS is greater than the sensitivity of the victim link receiver ( dRSS > sens). This probability can be calculated for two different modes, as illustrated in Figure 271 of section 12.9.2 . 
 
 
 Compatibility : This mode provides a single-figure estimate of the probability of interference in a given interference scenario; 
 
 
 Translation : This mode calculates probability of interference as a function of changing one of the following parameters: 
 
 
   
 
 
 Transmitter power of the interefering link transmitter; 
 
 
 Blocking response level of the victim link receiver; 
 
 
 Intermodulation rejection level for the victim link receiver
