An adaptive random-reservation MAC protocol to guarantee QoS for ATM over satellite
TL;DR: This paper analyzes the performance of an Adaptive Random-Reservation Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol which can support all ATM service classes while providing the required Quality of Service (QoS) and shows that maximum throughput can be achieved by using this access scheme.
Journal ArticleDOI
Network and common channel signalling aspects of dynamic satellite constellations
TL;DR: This paper discusses networking issues associated with the provision of L/S-band personal satellite communications and proposes a network architecture which takes restrictions into account and network signalling requirements, more specifically those relevant to network common control channels, are estimated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Natural sounding speech coder operating at 2.4 kb/s and below
TL;DR: A MB-LPC vocoder operating at 2.4 kb/s and below is presented which exploits the advantages of both time- and frequency-domain speech coding to produce natural sounding, good quality speech.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The design of specifications for satellite PCN handheld antennas
TL;DR: In this article, the relation between the pattern shape and the performance of an SPCN handheld antenna was examined based on the relationship between the environment and the noise received by the antenna.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved performance SOVA turbo decoder
TL;DR: A novel approach for improving the performance of the soft-output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA) when applied to turbo decoding is proposed based upon a modified two-step scaling factor approach for the decoder's extrinsic information.
