Abstract

The authors describe the meteor burst communications experiment performed by SCS Telecom, Martin Marietta Energy Systems, and the 11th Air Force. The experiment consisted of transmitting data and voice over a meteor burst channel between Anchorage and Kotzebue using SCS Telecom's FAVR modem. The FAVR algorithm is described. It is a variable rate modem capable of operating at bit rates up to 92 kbit/s using a 40-kHz bandwidth. Forward error correction, trellis decoding, and nonlinear equalization are used. Simulation and experimental results are shown and compared. >
