  • In recent years LEO(Low Earth Orbit) satellite communication systems have gained a lot of interest as high speed multimedia services by satellite are about to be provided. It is mandatory to use very efficient ECC(Error Correcting Code) to support high speed multimedia services over LEO satellite channel. Turbo codes developed by Berrou et al. in 1993 have been actively researched since it can achieve a performance close to the Shannon limit. In this paper, a LEO satellite channel model is adopted and the fading characteristics of LEO satellite channel are analyzed for the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments. The performance of turbo code is analyzed and compared to that of conventional convolutional code using the satellite channel model. In the simulation results using the Globalstar orbit constellations, performance of turbo codes shows 1.0~2.0dB coding gain compared to that of convolutional codes over all elevation angle and propagation environment ranges we have investigated. The performance difference resulting from the change of elevation angle in various propagation environments and the performance of different ECC are analyzed in detail, so that the results can be applied to choose an appropriate ECC scheme for various system environment.

  • In recent years there has been a huge increase in demand for new various communication services due to the rapid advances in wireless communication. These new emerging services give rise to the interference with the existed radio system. As the new representative systems NGSO/MSS systems have been developed, using NGSO, especially Low Earth Orbit (LEO), satellites such as Iridium, Globalstar systems to provide the rapid transfer of information and the positioning services for the moving persons whenever they want to communicate, even if wherever they are. In this paper we have analysed on the interference between the feeder link of NGSO/MSS and M/W fixed system, that is the interference from the mobile satellite earth station into M/W station, as well as the interference from M/W station into the mobile satellite earth station, and the coordinated area.

  • In this paper, interference of non-GSO/MSS system into M/W radio stations has been analyzed as two aspects. One is that PDF(Power Flux Density) levels, which are received by M/W radio stations from non-GSO satellites, were simulated and compared with the threshold level specified in ITU-R SF.357. The other is that C/I values, which have been utilized in estimating interference between conventional fixed services, were simulated and analyzed by means of calculating excess time percent and duration below the C/I protection ratio. As the results, it was shown that interference levels received by M/W stations from non- GSO/MSS satellites don't exceed above the threshold level at all, even if changing parameters related with M/W stations. In addition, the excess percent time below the interference protection ratio is a long term of 32% in the case of Iridium interfering into a M/W stations route, but only a short term of 1.71% in the case of Globalstar interfering into a M/W stations route.
