INTEGRATED SOURCE AND CHANNEL ENCODED DIGITAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM DESIGN STUDY

摘要

The tasks performed can be logically divided into the following four categories:n1. Study of burst error correction for Shuttle command channels.n2. Performance optimization and design considerations for Costas receivers with and without bandpass limiting.n3. Investigation of experimental techniques for measuring low level spectral components of microwave signals, andn4. Investigation and comparison of potential modulation and coding techniques for the Ku-band return link.
