Onboard processing for a 30/20 GHz communications satellite

A systems configuration for the baseband processor for a TDMA communications satellite utilizing the 30 GHz uplink and 20 GHz downlink bands will be discussed. The baseband processor functions include QPSK burst demodulation, convolutional decoding, data routing, encoding, QPSK modulation, and antenna steering. The performance of the burst demodulator will be examined. Power and weight estimates for the baseband processor will be presented.

The 30/20 GHz flight experiment system, phase 2. Volume 1: Executive summary

Summary information on the final communication system design, communication payload, space vehicle, and development plan for the 30/20 GHz flight experiment will be installed on the LEASAT spacecraft which will be placed into orbit from the space shuttle cargo bay. The communication concept has two parts: a truck service and a customer premise service (CPS). The trucking system serves four spot beams which are interconnected in a satellite switched time division multiple access mode by an IF switch matrix. The CPS covers two large areas of the eastern United States with a pair of scanning beams.
