However, most of these researches focus on satellite constellation with polar orbit due to its attractive commercial interest. Today, in view of the rapid growth in equatorial countries especially south east Asia (SEA), there is an urge to divert attention to this region. In this paper, the performance studies of the CDMA-based equatorial LEO satellite system are done on a downlink. The equatorial satellite constellation is based on the MERLION project, which is a joint satellite program of Nanyang Technological University and the University of Surrey. Henceforth, the effects of variation in elevation angles to the system performance is investigated based on the satellite constellation designed in the presence of multipath diversity and multisatellite diversity. The performance is reflected by the bit error rate of the various scenarios.","PeriodicalId":414137,"journal":{"name":"IEEE GLOBECOM 1998 (Cat.

Reuse partitioning is a technique of using differing reuse factors to provide an increase in system capacity. We consider an asymmetric channel-borrowing scheme between zones in two-zone reuse partitioning and model it as a controlled Markovian queuing system and evaluate its performance via simulation. Several simulation results are presented and discussed. In this paper, we also address the problem of guaranteeing call-blocking probabilities of outer zone calls and provide a way to find the best channel borrowing control policy. Throughout the study, two classes of calls, narrowband and broadband are taken into account.","PeriodicalId":414137,"journal":{"name":"IEEE GLOBECOM 1998 (Cat.

The considered access strategies can be subdivided into two groups, depending on the information used to select the next packet for transmission. \"A-priori\" strategies select the packet only according to the knowledge of the state of transmission queues. \"A-posteriori\" strategies rely on the knowledge of the state of both transmission queues and optical channels. A number of strategies belonging to the former group were recently proposed by the authors and offer an intrinsic hardware and algorithmic simplicity. Two novel strategies belonging to the latter group are proposed in this paper with the aim of assessing the trade-offs between complexity and overall system performance, including achievable throughput and queuing delay. Simulation results obtained under several traffic scenarios show that the increased complexity of a-posteriori strategies pays off in terms of performance.","PeriodicalId":414137,"journal":{"name":"IEEE GLOBECOM 1998 (Cat.

Next, to use the diversity bandwidth more effectively, we propose a novel M-ary/SS system using divided sequence frequency diversity, in which the spreading sequence is divided to L branches and these divided sequences are transmitted by each different frequency carrier. In the receiver, the maximum likelihood decision is achieved by using the addition of each partial correlation value. Compared with M-ary/SS using conventional frequency diversity and FH/MFSK system, considerable improvement of the BER can be obtained according to the increment of L in the proposed system.

Given the Internet's funding history with the US Department of Defense, multinational corporations have discovered that the architecture of the Internet which routes nearly all of the world's Internet traffic through peering points, called network access points (NAPs), does not scale to meet the requirements of increasingly complex business applications. Many companies have turned to premium, next-generation overnets to bypass public Internet congestion and get greater quality of service (QoS). The result is an improved experience for the global customer accessing a company's Web site with no time-outs or lengthy download times so end users can complete transactions for sales, customer support and other e-commerce applications. This causes increased customer retention and loyalty that successfully impact profitability. Unlike the public Internet, the success of the overnet is largely due to its innovative distributed-star architecture, which was specifically designed for global e-commerce. By comparison, the Internet was architected to withstand a nuclear attack-not to deploy business IP applications.","PeriodicalId":414137,"journal":{"name":"IEEE GLOBECOM 1998 (Cat.

The near-optimum low complexity soft decision decoding algorithm based on ordered statistics of Fossorier and Lin (1995) is modified so that soft outputs are delivered by the decoder. This algorithm performs nearly as well as the max-log-MAP decoding algorithm since in most cases, only the soft outputs corresponding to the least reliable bits may differ. For good (N,K,d/sub H/) block codes of length N/spl les/128, dimension K and minimum Hamming distance dH/spl les/4K, the corresponding decoding complexity is O((N-K)(K+1)n(d/sub H/,K)) real operations with n(d/sub H/,K)=/spl Sigma//sub i=0/([d/sub H//4])(/sub i//sup K/). Consequently, this algorithm allows to achieve practically the same error performance as the max-log-MAP decoding algorithm in iterative or concatenated systems with block codes for which the associated trellis complexity is simply too large for implementation of trellis based decoding algorithms.","PeriodicalId":414137,"journal":{"name":"IEEE GLOBECOM 1998 (Cat.
