Abstract
- The conventional TDMA satellite communication system generally involves operations in which a sufficient amount of back-off is provided by using a large-scale high-power amplifier (HPA) in the earth station. However, if the HPA in the earth station can be operated at the saturation point, the earth station can be downsized and rendered into a low-power consumption station, with considerable benefits in terms of earth station installation and economy of operation. The authors have proposed a system combining an optimized transmission system and error-correction code, using burst modem filters and other devices, in a transmission system including two nonlinear devices of an earth station HPA and a satellite traveling-wave tube amplifier (TWTA), and have confirmed by computer simulations and experiments that it is feasible to operate the earth station HPA at its saturation point. The authors have also demonstrated that adequate performance characteristics can be attained in terms of burst-to-burst interference and cycle-skipping characteristics in the carrier recovery system. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
