چکیده

In a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite mobile multimedia system, the multiple access scheme should be capable of supporting the necessary features that would facilitate the provision of multimedia services. Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) is an attractive multiple access scheme for mobile multimedia communications based on LEO satellites. In this paper, the performance of WCDMA system over LEO satellite channel is evaluated. The performance is measured in terms of the bit error probability. A mathematical derivation of the bit error probability is presented. A rake receiver with maximal ratio combining is considered in the analysis. The effect of the number of users and the processing gain on the performance of the WCDMA system is investigated.

Determination of the best-fitting reference orbit for a LEO satellite using the Lagrange coefficients

Linearization of the nonlinear equations and iterative solution is the most well-known scheme in many engineering problems. For geodetic applications of the LEO satellites, e.g. the Earth’s gravity field recovery, one needs to provide an initial guess of the satellite location or the so-called reference orbit. Numerical integration can be utilized for generating the reference orbit if a satelli...

Effects of Some Parameters on Thermal Control of a LEO Satellite

Satellite thermal control ensures safe operating temperature ranges for satellite components throughout the mission life. Effects of altitude, spin, and position of satellite radiator(s) on the thermal control of a small Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite have been studied. Results show that change in satellite altitude, in the range considered here, does not produce critical thermal conditions. H...

Using Adaptive Modulation in a LEO Satellite Communication System

Adaptive modulation is a powerful technique to improve the energy efficiency and increases the data rate over a fading channel. The ground station transmitter and the satellite receiver adapt the modulation scheme and the transmitter power to the state of the channel. In this paper, we study adaptive multi-level quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) schemes for LEO satellite over a Rayleigh f...
