2ApplicationESIMEarth Stations in-motion (ESIM) operating with NGSO FSS systems with antennas that track continuously the satellites.
Considered are Land, Maritime and Aeronautical ESIMs.
3Frequency band14.00 - 14.50 GHzReceive frequency bands (space-to-Earth): 10.70 – 12.75 GHz.
The receive band 10.7 - 11.7 GHz is co-primary used with the FS under the terms of sufficient geographical separation and uncoordinated FSS Earth stations (ESIM) operate in this band on a non-protected basis.
