Summary
A multibeam concept under full frequency reuse is a major prerequisite for high throughput satellite systems. The resulting interference problems might be tackled by appropriately designed precoding or multiuser detection schemes. However, before such powerful techniques are applicable, the most important transmission parameters have to be recovered successfully. In the context of this paper, a feedback structure for joint control of carrier frequency and symbol timing is investigated for a multibeam scenario, which has been developed in some previous work by the authors for a single user link. It is to be noticed that we describe a recovery method for a multibeam satellite network with suitably selected interference mitigation techniques; as a consequence, all cochannels are assumed to be aligned in frequency and time to the reference beam; other signal models are out of scope and not addressed in this contribution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
