Abstract
The ever increasing demand for multimedia wireless communication systems is a key feature of more advanced markets. The buzzword of personal communications, meant to provide "access to anyone, anywhere, at anytime" to the wanted service, implies that spectrum demands are dramatically increasing in most developed markets. To cope with these needs, and in order to exploit the released spectrum resulting from the Digital Switchover, the last World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07) allocated on a co-primary basis the upper part of the UHF band to mobile services as from 2015. This will cause potentially harmful mutual interference between TV and mobile radio services, that needs to be carefully analyzed. In this paper we present a study of the co-channel interference problem, proposing a methodology to take into account the mutual interference between a LTE mobile network and a DVB-T system and highlighting the different behaviour of the two radio links.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
