TDMA performance monitoring of communications satellite transmitters
Abstract
This paper describes schemes for monitoring the satellite TWTA transmitters' saturated power output and transponder linear gain variations. These schemes were implemented in the Communications System Monitor that was designed and developed to monitor critical satellite and earth station parameters of Satellite Business System's demand-assigned time-division multiple-access network.
