QRM, Packet Satellites and Spread Spectrum

Digital messaging satellites designed for general use may attract considerable user interest. High interest will mean heavy interference on the satellite uplink channels, which could make the satellite useless. This paper discusses the characteristics of this interference, and proposes a solution using spread-spectrum technology.

Abstract

Digital messaging satellites designed for general use may attract considerable user interest. High interest will mean heavy interference on the satellite uplink channels, which could make the satellite useless. This paper discusses the characteristics of this interference, and proposes a solution using spread-spectrum technology.
