HomeAn analysis of issues related to radio frequency coexistence of meteorological radar sensor operating in the C band with wireless local area networks
Policy and technical options to mitigate the issues of RF coexistence
Publication metadata
The issue of interference to meteorological radars from Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Radio Local Area Network (RLAN) or WAS/RLAN systems operating in the 5 GHz band are on the agenda of several groups and committees since long time as initial issues of coexistence are dated more than 10 years ago. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is one of the main issues in weather radar community as data quality and post-processing algorithms can be negatively impact by interferences. On the basis of the World Radiocommunications Conference in 2003, C-band radars share their operational frequency band with WLAN/RLAN and WLAN, which may lead to causing interferences in weather radar systems. The European Commission Joint Research Centre (EC DG JRC) has started to investigate in 2020 the matter of coexistence between meteorological radars as part of the overall activity on radio frequency coexistence between wireless services. This technical report is the result of an initial preliminary analysis of the extensive and available documentation on this topic. This report does not aim to replicate the analysis already conducted by the various organizations (e.g., CEPT, ADCO RED, EUMETNET, ETSI), involved in this matter but to summarize the key open issues still outstanding and the potential actions, which can be conducted by the EC JRC to mitigate this issue.
