Coded-beam Strategy for High Throughput Satellites - A Path Toward Terahertz Communications - System Model, Realization and Performance Assessment

Abstract

This Paper presents a realization of a new trend for the High Throughput Satellite (HTS) resource allocation, known as Coded-beam High Throughput Satellite (CB-HTS) strategy. The system model demonstrates the physical layer description of the proposed CB-HTS strategy. The paper investigates the performance of the proposed system, which is validated for the different modulation and coding (MODCOD) techniques of the Digital Video Broadcasting standards (DVBS2/DVB-S2X). The numerical results of the proposed CB-HTS system are performed with realistic satellite link channel conditions and demonstrate a significant performance gain over the state of art technology, which depends on the frequency reuse concept. Results demonstrate a significant performance enhancement over the state of the art.
