It has been suggested that CDMA be used as a multiple access method for satellite systems as well, in particular for multi-spot beam Low Earth Orbit Satellites (LEOS). One is tempted to argue that since CDMA works well on terrestrial links, it will nominally work as well on satellite links. However, because there are fundamental differences in the characteristics of the two channels, such as larger time delays from the mobile to the base station and smaller multipath delay spreads on the satellite channels, the performance of CDMA on satellite links cannot always be predicted accurately from its performance on terrestrial channels. In this paper, the authors analytically derive the performance of a CDMA system which operates over a low Earth orbiting satellite channel. They incorporate such effects as imperfect power control and dual order diversity to obtain the average probability of error of a single user.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":323612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of MILCOM '93 - IEEE Military Communications Conference","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128324896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ACT device is a programmable transversal filter (PTF) and is used as a correlator whose taps can be adapted to optimize detection performance.

It is demonstrated via simulation that the transform domain processor utilizing the computationally simple least mean square (LMS) algorithm is capable of convergence speeds which rival the more expensive to implement least squares methods. Furthermore, there is no additional cost in terms of the adaptive coefficient requirements (and only a modest increase in non-adaptive computational requirements) when compared to the standard tapped-delay-line (TDL) structure array utilizing the LMS algorithm. This performance increase provides a quicker approach to the optimal steady state solution, and is therefore more robust to a non-stationary environment than the corresponding TDL structure LMS processor. The flexibility of this new structure will permit both 'block' and 'sample' filter operations and is therefore proposed for the implementation of wavelet filters and generalized multirate filter banks. The results are equally valid for other array forms (such as unconstrained nonlinear arrays), for space-based Multiple Beam Antennas (MBAs) in satellite communications, and for other applications such as radar and sonar adaptive nulling.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":323612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of MILCOM '93 - IEEE Military Communications Conference","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130292310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But, the use of commercial SATCOM to support low data rate (less than 64 Kbps) mobile or remote communication has been minimal, if nonexistent. Current commercial systems require large, narrow beam, antennas to prevent the interference inherent in the closely spaced commercial satellites (as little as 2/spl deg/ apart). This has limited these systems to large fixed site applications. This paper describes the use of simple signal processing techniques to support the use of broadbeam C-band antennas on small, low cost terminals. The proposed use of C-band systems with small broadbeam antennas opens up C-band satellites and technology to a whole new class of low data rate, mobile commercial and military applications not previously considered.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":323612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of MILCOM '93 - IEEE Military Communications Conference","volume":"73 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120976856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lessons learned in Desert Storm tell that mobility of communications is of the utmost importance to a fighting force; network access in this new architecture will be via a variety of personal mobile and portable terminals that extend complete mobility to all users. A terrestrial backbone network using many vehicles, LOS links, and much (frequency) planning will no longer be needed; the architecture discussed is a Land Mobile Satellite (LMS) system. Feasibility of such a tactical system architecture is argued and some promising technology options available to system architects and designers are identified.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":323612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of MILCOM '93 - IEEE Military Communications Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121169298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The probability density function (p.d.f.) of the multiple user interference (MUI) is obtained for deterministic complex signature sequences. Upper and lower bounds are obtained by utilizing appropriate shifting procedures on the p.d.f.
