5G INTERFERENCE IMMUNITY– CHOOSING THE BEST SOLUTION

Introduction
5G networks in the 3.4 to 4.0 GHz band are coming and will cause interference problems in the satellite C-band
receive spectrum 3.4 - 4.2 GHz. To maximize available spectrum the guard bands between the 5G systems and
the satellite receive bands will get smaller and smaller. New filters and LNBs are required to ensure immunity to
these 5G systems.

Impact of 5G Interference on LNBs

A massive MIMO 5G base station could easily generate 75 dBm EIRP with their high-power amplifiers and
directional antennas. Distance and the relative angles between the 5G antenna and the satellite antenna provide
some immunity, but interfering signals of -15 dBm or higher at the input to the LNB are possible. In built up areas,
there may be several 5G base stations causing interference. Contrast this to satellite receive signals that are
typically -90 dBm to -120 dBm. An LNB typically has about 60 dB gain and an output 1 dB compression point of
between 5 and 10 dBm. It is good practice to ensure that the aggregate output power is kept well below this so
aggregate power at the input of the LNB should be less than -55 dBm. Interfering signals of -55 dBm will start to
cause the LNB to saturate and cause interference problems.

High power signals from 5G base stations, even out of band signals at the input of the LNB will cause:
1) reduced gain;
2) Increase in noise temperature
3) increased noise; and
4) non-linear intermodulation products.

This interference occurs because the high-power signal saturates the first amplifier stages or saturates the mixer. By
far the worst degradation occurs due to intermodulation
resulting in reduce picture quality or degraded BER
performance in data networks. Intermodulation is the
generation of mixing products between the interference
signals, the LNB LO and any in-band signals. The
following figure of a standard LNB output shows the in-
band intermodulation products for a -34 dBm interfering
signal at 3.6 GHz (Marker 2) with a desired signal at
3.95 GHz (Marker 1).

In addition to the in-band spurs, the interfering signal is saturating the LNB and appears at the IF output as a very
strong signal. A typical modem requires the aggregate L-band input power to the to be no more than about -5
dBm. The interfering signal leaking through the LNB must be kept below this to ensure the modem performance
is not impacted.

Many of the spurs are in-band so L-Band or IF filters placed between the LNB and modem will not be effective.
Equally, LNBs with integrated L-band filters will not provide immunity. Appropriate L-band filters could mitigate the
IF interfering signal. To provide immunity to 5G interference requires:
a) LNB with integrated filtering and designed to handle higher power
b) Passband waveguide filter in front of the LNB
c) Combination of an external filter and LNB with integrated filter

LNB with Integrated filtering

The Norsat 3200-BPF series LNBs are designed to mitigate
5G interference. They include band-pass filters after the first
amplifier stage, a mixer that can withstand higher power and
IF filtering. The Norsat 3200 filter can successfully mitigate
the intermodulation affects with interference up to about
-25 dBm. The figure on the left shows the LNB output with
no interference. The figure on the right shows the Norsat
3200-BPF LNB output with an interfering signal at -22 dBm.
The output spectrum is unaffected by the interfering signal;
however, the interfering signal is still present at the L-band
output of the LNB and is high enough in power to cause
degradation in modem performance.

The 3200-BPF LNB with integrated filter is much different

than the typical WiMAX or radar tolerant LNBs. These LNBs
usually only have filtering at IF. They cannot mitigate in-band
interference which will cause intermodulation products in the RF and mixer stages of the LNB. The 3200-BPF
includes filtering at RF to mitigate this.

Passband Waveguide filter in front of the LNB

Passband waveguide filter designed to eliminate 5G signals placed in front of the LNB can be used in place
of a transmit reject filter can mitigate 5G interference. External filters work by reducing the power of the 5G
interference while passing the desired signals. All filters have a transition region between the stop band and
the pass band. The rejection in this transition region is much less than in the stop band. The effectiveness of
the filter on mitigating the 5G interference depends on how close to the pass band the 5G interference is. The
Norsat BPF-C BPF filters provides about 58 dB, 28 dB and 3 dB rejection at 100 MHz, 50 MHz and 20 MHz from
the pass band respectively. It is quite possible that this filter will not provide immunity to 5G interference if the
interferer is close to the pass band and is high power.

Norsat also offers a set of extreme band pass filters that provide more rejection closer to the passband. For
example, the eBPF provides 70 dB, 65 dB and 60 dB rejection at 100 MHz, 50 MHz and 20 MHz offsets
respectively. However, the insertion loss of these filters is about 0.8 dB more than standard filter and this will
impact the system G/T and the received Eb/No.

Combination of an external filter

and LNB with integrated filter
In cases where the 5G signal is high and the
guard band between the 5G network and the
satellite receive spectrum is less than 100 MHz
, a combination of an external filter and LNB
with integrated filter is required. The following
graph shows measured rejection of the Norsat
3200-BPF-1 LNB (LNB with integrated 5G filter), the BPF-C-1 (5G waveguide BPF) and the combination of the
BPF and the LNB with integrated filter. In all cases the passband is 3.7-4.2 GHz.

The combination of the Norsat 3200-BPF LNB and a Norsat BPF-C will resolve most interference problems
where the 5G signal is at least 100 MHz from the pass band. In cases where guard bands are less it is necessary
to use the Norsat eBPF-C filters.

5G Immunity Solutions
The following tables summarizes the immunity to 5G signals for various combinations of LNB and filter for guard
bands of 100 MHz, 50 MHz and 20 MHz below the band edge and are sorted from lowest to highest immunity.
The values in the table indicate the highest level of interference that the LNB/Filter combination can handle
without impacting the LNB performance. The tables below assume a received signal of about -70 dBm. The
Immunity on the upper band edge is less, but this is not critical for interference mitigation.

The various combinations of LNB and filters have different insertion losses and noise figures and as such will
affect system performance differently. The following table provides some guidance on the impact on system G/T
of the various combinations:

G/T
Filter Insertion Loss LNB Noise Figure Change in G/T
Solution dB/K
(dB) (dB) (dB)
(2.4m Antenna)
3000 LNB 0 < 0.4 19.1 0
BPF-C + 3000 LNB 0.5 < 0.4 18.0 -0.9
eBPF-C + 3000 LNB 1.5 < 0.4 15.5 -3.6
3200-BPF 0 < 0.6 18.4 -0.7
BPF-C + 3200 BPF 0.5 < 0.6 17.4 -1.7
eBPF-C + 3200 BPF 1.5 < 0.6 15.1 -4.0

The table shows the more extreme solutions have more negative impact on system performance. Thus, it is
important to balance the immunity solution with system performance.

Conclusion
To ensure the satellite receive spectrum is immune to 5G interference requires a combination of external waveguide
filters and specially designed LNBs. Filters alone do not provide enough immunity especially for interferers close
to the satellite band. LNBs designed with integrated RF filters, high power mixers and IF filters also do not provide
enough immunity alone. The combinations available using the Norsat BPF-C, eBPF-C and 3200-BPF LNB allow
tailored solutions that provide 5G immunity to the satellite spectrum while maximizing system performance.
