Satellite Access Technologies• Hub platform supporting delivery to multiple sites via shared
outbound• Dedicated or shared inbound, depending on service
requirements/platform

Satellite Access TechnologiesOutbound (TDM, DVB-S2, etc.)• Hub-based shared mechanism• IP Packet Switching over an MCPC Carrier• TDM combines multiple data streams/packets using variable
time slot lengths• Statistical multiplexing allocates bandwidth on an as-needed
basis using different statistical decision criteria• Much tighter IP packet transmission than a remote shared
mechanism (TDMA, DVB-RCS, etc.) – reduced overhead• Some version of TDM used for the outbound carrier of most
every satellite point-to-multipoint network solution
![Page 14: Satellite Network Dimensioning](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050806/56816836550346895dddf012/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Satellite Access TechnologiesInbound (TDMA, DVB-RCS, etc.)• Allows multiple remotes to access shared medium in an organized
fashion
• Access control is required– Reference bursts
• Timing references for all stations to allow proper burst interleaving within TDMA frame
– Guard time• Transmit timing accuracy and range rate variation of satellite
• Traffic burst– One remote at a time
– Detailed traffic plan is calculated and disseminated
– One or many slots per burst
– One remote per slot
![Page 15: Satellite Network Dimensioning](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050806/56816836550346895dddf012/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
5986-Interference - 15For use by Intelsat customers only – please do not distribute.5824-Interference-Free - 15
Satellite Access TechnologiesInbound (SCPC)• Single Channel per Carrier provides the ability for one remote to
access the same medium at a time in a non-contended fashion– No sharing of bandwidth between remotes within the medium itself
– No concept of a timeframe as packets are tightly packed without concern of contention
• No access control required– Associated overhead eliminated
– All “bursts” are traffic, one after another not overhead
• Each site has a fixed amount of bandwidth available to it at all times
![Page 16: Satellite Network Dimensioning](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050806/56816836550346895dddf012/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

TDM/MF-SCPC Model
Advantage Disadvantage
Dedicated bandwidth for each remote inbound
Each remote requires its own space segment
Provides superior Quality of Service for critical applications
Expensive OPEX if each remote bandwidth is not fully utilized
Low Latency and Low Jitter
SCPC modems typically more expensive than TDMA modems
Best transmission method for real-time applications, voice, data, video, broadcast, etc.
Fixed data rates on the inbound links
Single Channel Per Carrier

Lower overall OPEX compared to dedicated pipes
Demanding remotes can burden the system
Good for low data rate applications
Fragmentation of packets. Less effective for voice and video
Low cost remotes Expensive hub equipment
Large population of users
All remotes must be designed around worst case link

Satellite Access Technologies(Info Rate vs. IP Rate)• Two different data rates are important when sizing a TDMA
network… IP Rate and Information Rate• IP Rate is the actual IP throughput including IP headers and
data at Layer 3 of the OSI model– Represents actual LAN traffic on both remote and hub LANs
• Information Rate is the actual Layer 2 information, including TDMA framing overhead, sent over the satellite
– Link budgets must account for Information Rate, not IP Rate
– Different platforms have different IP Rate / Information Rate ratios• Depends on satellite access method
– aloha, slotted aloha (minimum delay, low traffic), TDMA

Forward Error CorrectionTurbo Product Coding (TPC)• Iterative decoding process
• Process produces a likelihood and confidence level measure for each bit
• Two parallel decoders “collaborate” and reach joint decision on bit value
• Low latency (vs. TCC, Vit/RS)– Due to the fact that there is no need to buffer for interleaving
• Turbo Product Coding– Lower Eb/No requires less power
– Higher efficiency requires less bandwidth
Less BW
Less Power
Viterbi / RS TPC
![Page 24: Satellite Network Dimensioning](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050806/56816836550346895dddf012/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) • Basis of DVB-S2 standard (LDPC/BCH)• Third-class of Turbo Code
– Turbo Product Coding (TPC)
– Turbo Convolutional Coding (TCC)
• Iteratively decoded block code• Performs 0.7 dB – 1.2 dB better than TPC at low FEC rates (3/4
and below)• While coding gain is greater, processing delay can be an issue

Benefits of Forward Error Correction• Advances in FEC can offer ≥ 3-5 dB of performance• 3 dB of Coding Gain can:
– Reduce required bandwidth by 50% (OPEX)
– Increase data throughput by a factor of 2 (OPEX)
– Reduce antenna size by 30% (CAPEX)
– Reduce transmitter power by a factor of 2 (CAPEX)
– Provides more link margin (Service Level)

Bandwidth vs. Power• Allocated BW
– Transponder bandwidth actually used
– Linear function of modulation and FEC
– Decreases with higher order mods and FECs
– “Bandwidth Limited” links have greater allocated BW compared to PEB
• Power Equivalent BW– Transponder power
required to close link
– Complicated function of hub antenna, remote antenna and satellite specifics along with required Eb/No
– Increases with higher order mods and FECs
– “Power Limited” links have greater PEB compared to allocated BW
Balanced Allocated BW/PEB

CAPEX (Hub Hardware)• Two models of hub hardware cost assignment
– Per project
– Over multiple projects
• Hub platform costs can introduce significantly high barriers to entry
– Lower cost hubs have lowered this barrier
– Virtual Network Operator (VNO) concept lowered this entry cost
• Growth costs must also be considered– Function of how many end customers a “starter kit” can support
• Equipment re-use– Some platforms use the same hardware for hub and remote
![Page 29: Satellite Network Dimensioning](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050806/56816836550346895dddf012/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
5986-Interference - 29For use by Intelsat customers only – please do not distribute.5824-Interference-Free - 29
CAPEX (Remote Hardware)• Remote costs can become significant part of the total cost
of a network– Portion of TCO grows with the size of the network
• Indoor Kit– Low-cost TDMA/DVB-RCS Indoor Units (IDUs) have dropped in
price to $1,000
– SCPC modems $4,000+
• Outdoor Kit– Antenna and ODU sizing based on either shared carrier size or
dedicated carrier size
– Example 1024 kbps TDMA inbound carrier with each remote requiring a 256 kbps service

16APSK Operation• No significant impact for use of linear pre-correction for group
delay/frequency response for multi-carrier transponder • Require non-linear pre-correction to compensate for amplitude
and phase distortions associated with operation near transponder saturation• Uplink HPA assumed to operate multi-carrier OBO• Requires transponder characteristics (freq response, group
delay, AM/AM, AM/PM)• Newtec calculation of pre-distortion data (approx. 24 hours)• Load data into Newtec modulator
