Abstract
In this paper, hardware implementation and simulation method of channel simulator of Ka-band communication satellite systems are investigated. Adopting FPGA+DSP hardware, the developed simulator can exactly simulate various satellite channel impairments including phase noise, time delay, Doppler, Ricean fading, Rayleigh fading, rain fading, additive Gaussian white noise, modulated interference signals, spurious performance, amplitude-frequency response, and group delay. Up until now, this new simulator is the most comprehensive channel simulator in the world. Furthermore, the designs of the key simulation modules including group delay and phase noise are presented in the paper, and their simulation accuracy are also discussed. Finally, Measurement results show that the proposed simulator has achieved good performance.
