Abstract

A satellite transponder simulator based on actual test data of TURKSAT 3A satellite has been developed to analyze degradation in multicarrier scenarios. Communication impairment sources through a transponder are explained in conjunction with a methodology defined to characterize total degradation resulting from them. Several transponder utilization scenarios are studied with respect to total degradation and optimum operation conditions are demonstrated.
