초록

최근 지상파 방송은 아날로그 TV방송에서 디지털 TV방송으로의 전환이 진행 중에 있다. 이러한 디지털 TV방송 전환 이후에 동일 채널 간섭으로 인한 TV White space (TVWS)의 재할당 및 배치가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 방송서비스 전파모델로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 Longley-Rice와 ITU-R P.1546 전파모델에서 동일채널간섭 (CCI; co-channel interference)으로 인해 발생되는 TVWS에 대해 연구한다. 또한 디지털 방송에서 송신 안테나 높이와 송신전력에 따른 서비스 커버리지 반경과 CCI 반경을 분석한다. 분석결과에 의하면, Longley-Rice와 ITU-R P.1546 전파모델의 평균적인 CCI 반경 대 서비스 커버리지 반경의 비는 각각 2.54, 2.07이었다.

Recently, the digital television transition from analog television to digital television has been progressing in terrestrial broadcasting. As a result of the DTV transition, additional reassignments and deployments of TV White spaces (TVWS) caused by co-channel interference (CCI) were needed. In this paper, we investigate the TVWS caused by CCI using Longley-Rice and ITU-R P.1546 propagation model, which are the most widely-used propagation model. In addition, we analyze the service coverage radius and CCI radius according to the height of transmitter antenna and transmitting power. The results show that the ratios of CCI radius to service coverage radius in Longley-Rice and ITU-R P.1546 propagation model are about 2.54 and 2.07, respectively.
