Abstract
AbstractThe requirement for restoration of high capacity fibre optic cables and the new tariffs approved for INTELSAT digital services has created a requirement to develop performance characteristics for IDR carriers greater than 10 Mb/s. This paper presents the trade‐offs used in this development, and estimates the coding gains needed to meet these requirements. A number of FEC schemes are evaluated and a rate 3/4 convolutional code with soft decision Viterbi decoding is selected. Engineering service circuits (ESC) performance characteristics for IDR carriers greater than 10 Mb/s are also presented.
