International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 13-15, 1981 / Bahia Hotel, San Diego, California / An on-board baseband processor concept developed for commercial communications
satellite systems planned for the 1990s is described. The baseband processor, which
operates in a time-division multiple access mode, provides significant advantages in
improved link margins and system flexibility in accommodating varying demands from a
large number of users because of its ability to route and control message traffic on an
individual basis. This concept is currently being implemented in a proof-of-concept model
with the main objective of developing the technology required to support detailed design
and fabrication for an experimental satellite to be launched in 1987. This technology
development includes serial MSK modems, Clos-type baseband routing switch, a singlechip
custom CMOS maximum-likelihood convolutional decoder, and custom LSI
implementation of high speed, low power ECL building blocks.
