Description
This presentation examines a system solution to allow LEO Ka-band propagation measurements and Variable Coding and Modulation (VCM) demonstration at multiple points on the earth.
It provides a step towards the adoption of the 25.5 to 27GHz band for Earth Observation (EO) downlink from (Low Earth Orbit) LEO.
This paper contains key findings of a study conducted by SSTL and Viper RF for ESA with the ultimate goal of providing a timely and economic solution with a number of technical advancements.
