Coding for meteor burst communications

The use of error correction coding for meteor burst communications is discussed. The cutoff rate is derived for a meteor burst channel model which assumes that the received signal amplitude decays exponentially. The message error rate of a coded system, obtained by means of computer simulation, is compared to that of an uncoded system. A tight upper bound on the performance of the coded system is presented. It is shown that coding can reduce the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) required for reliable communications via meteor bursts by many decibels. The coding gain is larger at shorter communication ranges where meteor trails, decay faster. It is also shown that the additional improvement achieved by providing the decoder with side information on the instantaneous level of the received signal is small

A computer investigation of error-control-coding techniques and bit error patterns recorded on an experimental Northern latitude meteor burst link is presented. Automatic repeat request (ARQ) and hybrid forward error correction (FEC) with ARC are examined from the standpoint of probability of message delivery and encountered message delivery delays. It is demonstrated that FEC will yield substantial improvement in the number of messages deliverable within a specified time constraint. Potential gains in extending the usable time duration of a meteor burst channel are on the order of factors of four with successful message delivery percentages increased by factors of 50

An adaptive receiver of joint data and channel estimation for meteor burst communications

In view of the characteristics of the meteor burst channel, the variable rate data transmission should be adopted to improve the system average throughput, which results in channel tracing and equalization problems at the receiver. Although the joint data and channel estimation of maximum likelihood sequence detection performing the principle of per‐survivor processing (PSP) is considered as an optimal detection scheme, its great computational complexity is a major problem and can hardly agree with the decreasing of the meteor channel. Based on the estimation of the system parameters, an adaptive state reduction of the PSP (ASRP) algorithm with only a few states in the trellis diagram is employed, while these states are chosen by the time‐varying threshold according to the exponential decay of meteor channels. It is shown that, ASRP can make a good tradeoff between the performance and the computational complexity, and provides reliable data transmission for adaptive modulation and coding of the meteor burst communication system. Computer simulation results and performance analysis are also included to support our developments. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
