Abstract
A modem/codec is designed for a digital signal transmission system using a single satellite transponder. The system is capable of transmitting data of a rate of 155.52 Mbps, and is thus compatible with the BISDN rate. A codec of rate 13/15 is used, and an octal phase shift keying modem is also used. In this way, the digital signal transmission system is capable of receiving data at a rate of 155.52 Mbps over a single INTELSAT V/VA transponder with a usable bandwidth of 72 MHz.
Claims3
A digital information transmission apparatus comprising:
- first conversion means for converting a serial input data stream of bit rate 156 Mbps into four parallel data streams of 39 Mbps each;
- encoder means for separately encoding each of the four parallel data streams, each said encoder means including first code-forming means for forming a code involving 15 output bits for each 10 input bits, second code-forming means for forming a code involving 15 output bits for each 14 input bits, and third code-forming means for forming a code involving 15 output bits for each 15 input bits;
- means for combining to combined outputs from said encoder means for generating channel symbols;
- and
- second conversion means for converting said channel symbols into a single channel symbol serial data stream for transmission to a receiver.
