Resumo(s)
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks can improve terrestrial wireless networks to
allow global broadband services for Mobile Terminals (MT), regardless of the users' location.
In this context, hybrid telecommunication systems combining satellites with Long
Term Evolution (LTE) networks, like the LightSquared technology, are intended to provide
ubiquitous high-speed services.
This dissertation analyses the performance of a random access protocol that uses Hybrid
Network-assisted Diversity Multiple Access (H-NDMA), for a LEO satellite system
network, named by Satellite Random NDMA (SR-NDMA). The protocol also considers
a Single Carrier-Frequency Domain Equalization (SC-FDE) scheme for the uplink transmission
and a Multipacket Reception (MPR) receiver. In this scenario, the transmission
of data packets between MTs and the Base Station (BS) is made through random access
and schedule access slots, organized into super-frames with the duration of a Round Trip
Time (RTT).
A SR-NDMA simulator is implemented to measure the system performance in matters
of throughput, energy consumption, system delay and also the protocol capacity to
meet Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. A set of simulations tests were made with a
random Poisson process tra c generation to validate the analytical model. The capacity
to ful l the QoS requirements of a real-time tra c class was also tested.
