A power-efficient BPSK communications system for small satellites
Abstract
The BER performances of several modulation types are compared. The advantages of using a coherently detected, antipodal modulation such as binary phase shift keying (BPSK) are demonstrated. A BPSK modem brassboard for satellite communication is described.
