Abstract
In a user terminal of low earth orbit(LEO) satellite communication systems, there are some technical issues, such as tracking of the connecting satellite, reduction of the interference from other satellites, and hand-off between satellites. As an answer to these issues, this paper proposes a new receiver structure using a set of adaptive array antennas. Combining the outputs of these adaptive array antennas, the receiver realizes satellite diversity. We also show a down-link signal design which employs Code Division Multiplex scheme for this proposed receiver structure. The performance of the system with the receiver and the down-link signals is evaluated by computational simulation.
