    摘要: A transmitter, including a signal processor programmed to generate, based on input serial data, for each of an integer number of subcarriers mutually orthogonal to each other, a respective first parallel data stream. The signal processor is further programmed to modulate each of the integer number of subcarriers respectively with the respective parallel stream to generate the integer number of data-modulated subcarriers. The signal processor is further programmed to modulate a single carrier occupying a same bandwidth as the integer number of subcarriers with a unique word and one or more pilot symbols to generate a second signal. The signal processor combines the first signal and second signal to generate a third signal. The signal processor generates an output signal by applying a transmit filter to the third signal.

    摘要: Approaches for satellite data transmissions are provided, which accommodate for periodic signal blockages without packet loss. A data stream is segmented into packets for wireless transmission, wherein the transmission is subject to a periodic blockage, wherein the periodic blockage comprises two blockages occurring within a time period, and each blockage is of a respective duration and recurs at regular intervals based on the time period. A forward error correction outer code is applied to the packets for recovery of data erasures due to the periodic blockage, wherein the application of the outer code comprises applying an error correction code to each of the packets to generate a respective codeblock. Each codeblock is interleaved to prevent erasure of consecutive parity bits within the codeblock. The encoded and interleaved codeblocks are transmitted over a wireless channel, wherein a number of data erasures occur within each codeblock due to the periodic blockage.

    摘要: The present invention provides an approach for FEC encoding based on intermediate code block lengths not associated with any supported mother FEC code. A first string of k2 data bits is received. The first string of data bits is encoded to generate an N2 bit code block for transmission over a channel of a wireless communications network. The first data bit string is encoded based on a supported (N1,k1) forward error correction (FEC) code of a code rate R=k1/N1, configured to encode a string of data bits of a length k1 bits to generate a code block of a length N1 bits. To facilitate the encoding of the first string of data bits based on the (N1,k1) FEC code, the encoding comprises padding, repeating and/or puncturing the first string of data bits and a resulting N1 bit code block to generate the N2 bit code block.

    摘要: An approach is provided for an improved coding approach for efficient header signaling in broadband communications networks, to provide support of expanded modulation and coding scheme sets that facilitate an expansion of the operational ranges of user terminals within such networks and finer granularity within such operational ranges. A mode indicator field of a frame header identifies a modulation/coding mode applied to a data payload of the data frame. The modulation/coding mode is one of either a first or second set of modulation/coding modes. The mode indicator field is encoded and modulated. When the modulation/coding mode is one of the first set, the modulation of the encoded mode indicator field is applied in a first mode, and when the modulation/coding mode is one of the second set, the modulation of the encoded mode indicator field is applied in a second mode.

    摘要: Various arrangements for a satellite-based forward link overlay are presented herein. In some embodiments, broadband data is modulated at a particular frequency, phase, and/or timing to create a broadband data signal. The frequency, phase, and/or timing are used to modulate a low-bandwidth data signal. The low-bandwidth data signal can then be combined with the broadband data signal and transmitted via satellite to a geographic region. A low-bandwidth receiver unit may determine the frequency, phase, and/or timing from the embedded broadband signal and use such information to demodulate and despread the low-bandwidth data signal.

At least 95% of forward feeder data throughput for all of the forward RF service link transmissions by the satellite is carried via the forward optical link and the forward RF feeder links.
