Abstract: A method of reusing frequency bands between base stations of a terrestrial mobile communications network and a satellite communications network, comprising allocating the frequency bands using integrated resource management and other mitigation techniques in a such a way as to minimise interference between both the systems, thus making optimum usage of valuable frequency spectrum.

Abstract: A satellite broadcast system and method, particularly useful for television signals, allows for local as well as nationwide broadcast service by allocating greater satellite resources to the more important local service areas. This is accomplished by broadcasting a non-uniform pattern of local service beams and designing the system to establish different service area priorities through factors such as the individual beam powers, sizes, roll-off characteristics and peak-to-edge power differentials. Frequency reuse is enhanced by permitting a certain degree of cross-beam interference, with lower levels of interference established for the more important service areas.
