SMTC Configuration and Window Adjustment Strategies for Beam Hopping in NR‐NTN
ABSTRACT Beam hopping is an effective transmission strategy for nonterrestrial networks (NTNs), enabling satellites to allocate limited power and spectrum resources across different geographical regions over time. However, in NR‐based NTN systems, beam hopping complicates synchronization monitoring because synchronization signal block (SSB) arrivals ...

DIRECT OPTICAL HIGH SPEED DOWNLINKS AND GROUND STATION NETWORKS FOR SMALL LEO MISSIONS [PDF]
Direct microwave data downlink capacity of today’s earth observation satellites is limited in terms of available spectrum, transmission data rate, and power consumption.

Routing and Downlink Resource Allocation for Multicast Traffic in LEO Satellite Constellations
ABSTRACT In this work, we optimize unicast and multicast traffic delivery over non‐terrestrial networks (NTNs) to users on the ground through direct satellite downlink (DL). We consider a gateway‐free mesh architecture with low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites interconnected via inter‐satellite links (ISLs), where unicast and multicast services compete for

Onboard Data Prioritization Using Multi-Class Image Segmentation for Nanosatellites
Nanosatellites are proliferating as low-cost, dedicated remote sensing opportunities for small nations. However, nanosatellites’ performance as remote sensing platforms is impaired by low downlink speeds, which typically range from 1200 to 9600 bps ...

Tailoring Model‐Based Systems Engineering for Sub‐100 g PlanarSats: A Power‐First View Stack
ABSTRACT This paper addresses how to apply model‐based systems engineering (MBSE) to ultrasmall planar satellites under severe power and resource constraints. PlanarSats are sub‐100‐gram spacecraft built as single printed‐circuit boards where the same surface must host both electronics and solar cells, so power generation, geometry, and component ...

Savings on Transmit Power through Designed Horizon Plane for LEO Satellite Ground Stations
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites are used for public networking and for scientific purposes. Established satellite ground stations can communicate with LEO satellites only when the satellite is in their visibility region, since LEO satellites move too ...
