scope:
The present document aims at assessing the performance of a SC-FDMA-based radio waveform over geostationary satellites in Ku/Ka band. Moreover, it aims at defining an evaluation framework for performance comparison with existing waveform technologies (e.g. DVB-S2, DVB-S2X and DVB-RCS2), focusing on the radio and physical layers.
The present document deals with satellite return link only. The forward link is for further study. For the return link, two use cases have been identified and treated so far, Satellite News Gathering (DSNG) and Broadband Access.
The present document provides a description of the waveforms to be compared; it identifies their key characteristics, defines the system model used for comparison and presents comparative performance results in terms of spectral efficiency. A complexity analysis is also performed.
