Abstract:
A method of providing a recovery channel for a common transmission network of remote devices comprising encoding data that contains information about a primary carrier signal, modulating the encoded information, spreading, the modulated encoded information such that a secondary carrier signal results, combining, the spread secondary carrier with the primary carrier signal such that the spread secondary carrier signal occupies at least a portion of a bandwidth of the bandwidth pool, transmitting the combined primary and secondary carrier signals across a communications link having a plurality of remote carrier signals also being transmitted across the communications link to a remote receiver and sharing a same bandwidth pool (or multiple bandwidth pools), and reestablishing the communications link with the primary carrier signal after a loss of the communications link using the information about the primary carrier signal contained in the secondary carrier signal to recover one or more network configuration parameters.

Abstract:
A method for remotely and dynamically controlling adjacent satellite interference comprising monitoring one or more off-axis signals emitted by one or more remote transmitters; determining whether one or more of the off-axis signals is creating adjacent satellite interference (ASI), off axis emissions and inband interference that is higher than a predetermined level of acceptable interference, and transmitting a control signal to at least one of the one or more remote transmitters in response to the determination that the one or more off-axis signals is creating interference that is higher than the predetermined level of acceptable interference, the control signal initiating an adjustment to one or more transmission parameters of the one or more remote transmitters such that interference resulting from the one or more off-axis signals emitted by the one or more remote transmitters is reduced or eliminated.
Abstract:
A method of creating a pseudo hemispherical beam using a plurality of individual spot beams comprising receiving by a single router or packet processor, user data from a plurality of users, processing the user data by the single router or packet processor using a QoS logic such that a single output comprising a plurality of queues of data results, each queue of data comprising data designated for transmission only to one or more predetermined remote receivers, modulating the plurality of queues of data received using a multiple-carrier modulator such that a single output comprising a plurality of individual spot beams results, wherein each individual spot beam has a unique center frequency and carrier signal configuration, and transmitting the plurality of individual spot beams to a repeating relay configured to transmit each individual spot beam to the one or more predetermined remote receivers.
Abstract:
A method of reducing adjacent satellite interference, the method comprising monitoring, by a processor, a power spectral density (PSD) of a signal transmitted by a remote transmitter, determining, by the processor, that the PSD of the signal transmitted by the remote transmitter is above a predetermined level, and reducing the PSD of the signal transmitted by the remote transmitter by adjusting at least one of a spread spectrum spreading factor, a power level, a modulation factor, and a forward error correction (FEC) rate using a modulator while maintaining a constant spectral allocation and center frequency of the signal.
