Modulation Technique and Density

By

 Modulation is a technique for converting one form of information to another form. In satellite communications this is the digital conversion to analogue for transmissions over the satellite link. In the modulation process multiple digital bits can be converted in to one analogue symbol. The reverse process is called demodulation.

8PSK Modulation

Phase-Shift-Keying (PSK) is commonly used in Sat Comms (BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK and 16APSK). PSK works by varying one or more of the analogue signal characteristics (Amplitude, Frequency and/or Phase). Higher density bits per symbol gives more throughput on the link but will require higher receive signal and transmit power.

Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK)

1 symbol represents 1 bit of information (0 or 1).

Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK)

1 symbol represents 2 bits of information (00, 01, 10 or 11).

8 Phase Shift Keying (8PSK)

1 symbol represents 3 bits of information (000, 001 …. 110,111).

16-Ary Amplitude and Phase Shift Keying (16APSK)

1 symbol represents 4 bits of information (0000, 0001 …. 1110, 1111). 16APSK requires high signal to noise ratio (SNR) to operate and will require more Tx power/larger dish.

What is the Difference Between UHF & VHF & HF and GMRS & FRS?

By
  UHF- Ultra High Frequency (between 300 MHz and 3 GHz) UHF radio waves propagate mainly by line of sight; they are blocked by hills and large buildings although the transmission through building walls is strong enough for indoor reception. They are used for television broadcasting, cell phones, satellite communication including GPS, personal radio services including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, walkie-talkies, cordless phones, and numerous other applications. The IEEE defines the UHF radar band as frequencies between 300 MHz and 1 GHz. Two other IEEE radar bands overlap the ITU UHF band: the L band between 1 and 2 GHz and the S band between 2 and 4 GHz. One of the biggest pros of UHF radios is that they do a much better job of penetrating barriers in urban locations, like concrete, steel, and wood. So this kind of radio is best suited for use indoors, including buildings with multiple floors, in industries such as manufacturing, distribution, education, retail, hospitality, and healthcare. Th

  Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) adalah sekelompok tingkat transmisi  serat optik  yang mengangkut sinyal digital dengan kapasitas yang berbeda. Teknologi SDH memungkinkan aliran data kecepatan bit rendah untuk digabungkan dengan aliran data kecepatan tinggi. Selain itu, karena seluruh  jaringan  sinkron, ini memungkinkan pengguna untuk menyematkan dan mengekstrak aliran bit individu dari aliran data berkecepatan tinggi dengan relatif mudah. SDH adalah versi Standarisasi Synchronous Optical Network (  SONET  ) dari International Telecommunication Union Sektor Standar . Kedua teknologi tersebut menyediakan interkoneksi jaringan yang lebih cepat dan lebih murah daripada peralatan Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) tradisional. https://www.rfwireless-world.com/Terminology/PDH-vs-SDH.html https://www.rfwireless-world.com/Terminology/SONET-vs-SDH.html   SDH digunakan dalam sistem transmisi untuk  Jaringan Digital Layanan Terpadu  broadband dan untuk mengangkut sel  Mode
