Abstract
Reliable data transmission is crucial in the field of satellite communication, and many coding schemes are used to improve this reliability. Two popular coding techniques: convolutional codes and block codes were investigated and compared in this paper. Utilizing a simulated environment, the author investigates the bit error rate (BER) performance of both coding strategies along with a baseline case of no coding. The analysis reveals distinct characteristics and performance attributes of the two coding techniques across a range of signal-to-noise rate (SNR) values. Convolutional codes, with their inherent memory, offer error protection across sequences, while block codes, particularly a Hamming-like 7,3 implementation, provide localized protection for individual blocks. The findings of this study contribute to the understanding of error control strategies in satellite communication, guiding the selection and design of coding methods suitable for various operational scenarios and requirements.
