Method and system for performing multi-layer, multi-dimensional link budget analysis (LBA) using real-time network, weather, satellite ephemeras and ionospheric information

A system for dynamically modeling performance of a communications network, the system comprising:

• a communications network comprising at least one transmitter, at least one satellite repeating relay, and at least one remote receiver;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• model the communications network by performing a link budget analysis (LBA) for a configuration of the communications network;
• receive a plurality of layers of real-time information about the communications network;
• iteratively perform additional LBAs using one or more of the layers of real-time information from among the plurality of layers of real-time information;
• multi-dimensionally co-modeling, by the processor, a matrix comprising results of the iteratively performed additional LBAs;
• and
• determine one or more final communications network configuration parameters based on the multi-dimensionally co-modeled matrix.
