Development of MBC System Using Software Modem
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new type of Meteor Burst Communication (MBC) network is developed. Each unit of the network is based on a DSP board running a modem software. All the fundamental blocks and functions of a modem are implemented in software. Unlike hardware modems, this software modem has flexibility of system configuration and operation. The system implements adaptability in terms of modulation type (number of phases in MPSK) using a unique dynamic channel estimation scheme appropriate for MBC channel. An MBC network protocol is implemented within the modem software. Some preliminary experiments were carried out for differential BPSK and differential QPSK modulations over a practical meteor burst link, and the results are presented. key words: Meteor Burst Communication, dynamic channel

A Meteor Burst Communication System with Dynamic Channel Estimation and Variable Modulation Type
A software modem for Meteor Burst Communication (MBC) is presented. The software is running on a DSP board, connected to a PC for user interface. MBC is a unique type of radio communication, which is suitable for non-realtime remote data collection. Forward scattering of radio waves from ionized trails of meteors provides reliable communication channel for path lengths from 300 to 2000 km and i...

Although many modem organizations are software-dependent, this does not mean that software development is a necessarily a critical business process for them. For many leading companies, software products, or services built on software capabilities, provide the organization’s competitive advantage. Many of these companies develop some of their own software systems in order to retain their softwa...
