A FSK receiver RF block has been developed for Dubaisat-1 Low Earth Orbit satellite. The receiver has Doppler tracking function which compensate frequency shift on uplink channel for commanding the satellite. It consist of LNA, downconverter and IF module. The IF module has Doppler tracking circuitry which sweep and lock on to input signal. It satisfies the requirement of the Dubaisat-1 in mass, power consumption, tracking speed and BER performance.

This paper presents DSP based narrow band satellite communication signal power detector for tracking control of mobile satellite antenna system. An analog filter based conventional power detector has poor performance due to frequency drift of carrier. Also, it is very difficult to change an analog filter bandwidth according to changed bandwidth of transmitted signal. To solve these difficulties, we proposed DSP based signal power detector, which is easy to change bandwidth of filter and to match shifted frequency of carrier. The proposed signal power detector consists of a FFT function to measure frequency drift of carrier, a programmable filter bank function to limit of received signal bandwidth and a power calculation function to measure power of filtered signal in 12-bit linear scale. Test results of implemented signal power detector, based on TMS320C5402 DSP, showed that it satisfied required functions and performances and properly operated.

ITU-R has conducted a studies for the frequency allocation to the maritime mobile satellite service (MMSS) in the 7375 - 7750 / 8025 - 8400 MHz under WRC-15 agenda item 1.9.2. In order to allocate a certain frequency bands to the new service, compatibility between new service and the existing services is ensured taking into account protecting the existing services form interference of new service. In this paper, we present current studies results of the frequency sharing studies between new allocation to MMSS and the existing services in the ITU-R. In addition, some proposals for allocating the 7/8 GHz frequency bands to MMSS are also considered for efficient spectral utilization with respect to preparing WRC-15.

This paper proposes the Doppler frequency tracking system by the optimum synchronization technique which compensates the frequency shifts caused by satellite movement in a coherent digital satellite communication system. A Doppler frequency shift caused by satellite movements and the design theories of the optimum synchronization system are mathematically described. Based on this theory, a Doppler frequency tracking system is implemented via digital signal processing techniques utilizing a DSP chip, RAMs, PROMs, and a 80286 microprocessor. The performance of the designed system was evaluated through the experiments with the INTELSATVA satellite.

Frequency resource efficiency is important in satellite communication systems. One of the causes of a waste of frequency resource is bad flatness. In the case, flatness of satellite Tx terminals would be worse by ACI and guard band. In order to overcome this problem, this paper proposes a technique for frequency response equalization in satellite Tx terminals. First of all, a general linear polynomial expression which meets least squares of representative measurement data is calculated to interpolate unmeasured data. And then flatness can be adjusted using the polynomial expression. Simulation results illustrate adjusted data have lower peak to peak and standard deviation than original data, and these show that flatness be improved.

In this paper, a shared band transmission, in which downlink signals from satellite to both earth station and user terminal are transmitted in the same frequency band, is considered. For proper operation of such shared band transmission, self-interference caused by the transmitted signal from its own transmitter should be cancelled and the desired signal from the other transmitter should be obtained. The self-interference is sent by its own transmitter and it can be easily regenerated with the estimated round-trip delay. In addition to this delay, non-linearity effects caused by power amplifiers at the earth station and satellite should be exploited. The proposed interference canceller divided into two parts: one is subtraction of the transmitted signal with delay and non-linearity effects, and the other is adoptive filter to suppressed the residual interference. Through computer simulations, the effectiveness of the proposed system is verified.
