Kurzfassung
This paper studies the performance of the communication link between a ground station and the satellites of a LEO constellation, employing code division multiplexing and a non-linear high-power amplifier. The analysis shows that the input power selection at the high-power amplifier of the ground station has a significant impact on overall system performance. The results concerning output power, the challenge of adjusting the back-off with a continuously changing number of satellites, and improved energy efficiency suggest operating in saturation. In this scenario, we can choose to transmit directly the sign of the sum of the signals directed to individual satellites. Analytical exact and simplified results are derived, enabling the estimation of performance as a function of the number of satellites being served when the amplifier operates at saturation. These analytic results are further validated through simulations. A formula to compute the loss across different numbers of satellites is also presented. The performance under saturated amplifier conditions is evaluated, compared, and discussed, providing valuable insights for simplifying the design and operation of satellite uplink communication systems under power amplifier constraints.
