Abstract

The Ka-band such as 21 GHz-band can be used to achieve future broadcasting satellite services. However, the rain attenuation above Ka-band is significant problem to be solved. Therefore, we consider the compensation technique using multi-beam satellite covering service area with several beams. In the proposed method, the transmission power of each beam is adaptively controlled based on weather condition in each service area. In this paper, we consider the effectiveness of some methods to allocate the transmission power of each beam.
