Title
Interference of short range radar with radio astronomy base stations
Abstract
The automotive industry is considering the integration of Short Range Radar (SRR) sensors operating in the 24 GHz frequency range in order to increase traffic safety and driver comfort. The potential spread of SRRs has raised concerns about the interference threat to earth based Radio Astronomy (RA) stations. This paper derives a generic procedure for the calculation of SRR interference with ground based radio astronomy receivers. It forces the aggregate interference power from the SRRs to be less than the ambient noise power inherent to any RA antenna in order to calculate the exclusion zone required to protect RA stations. The presented results are obtained for a maximum influence of the interference, thus by setting the parameters for a worst-case scenario. The generic procedure is also suited for different research objectives by adapting the parameters to the specific scenario.
