Comparative analysis and performance of two predictive fade detection schemes for Ka-band fade countermeasures.

Comparative analysis and performance of two predictive fade detection schemes for Ka-band fade countermeasures.

The design of Ka-band satellite fade countermeasure (FCM) systems is conditioned by the detection/prediction algorithm to be included within practical DSP-based FCM controllers. It depends upon the ability of systems to efficiently integrate the dynamic and stochastic nature of the Ka-band fading pr...
