AbstractAs a result of congestion of the frequency spectrum, the geostationary orbit, and soon to be also low earth orbit, and the related widespread use of frequency sharing, consideration of interference has assumed an important role in earth-station siting and other aspects of satellite system design. Interference may arise between terrestrial systems, between terrestrial and space systems, and between space systems. Attention in this research is given to interference involving satellite systems in geostationary orbit. Interference and unauthorized use of satellite communication channels are becoming of increasing importance. Efforts to correct interference problems are often complicated by the fact that there are several kinds of interference and each requires a different approach and a different solution. Therefore, the basic undestanding of the "behaviour" of each type of interferences greatly simplifies the process of finding the real source of the problem. This study summarizes the results from investigation of large number of interference cases occuring in geostationary satellite system. Produced tables and graphs show the monthly, daily and hourly analysis of different type of interferences and the outage probability of the satellite transponders is calculated. Recommendations are given to reduce the unkown type of interference and duration of interference.
