Abstract

A low data rate L-band transmitter and antenna is combined with a high data rate C-band receiver and antenna to link to a C-band transmitter and an L-band receiver on a geosynchronous orbiting satellite. This combination provides a surprising number of applications. The L-band and C-band equipment is located within the same hub station, which receives incoming signals from L-band receivers and transmits data to the C-band input data ports. The ""land"" side of the equipment is connected to data banks in the hub, to fiber or microwave links to the city networks, or to other satellite links to foreign destinations. The data stream coming down with the DVB signals carries packets used to manage responses solicited from remote users. This data stream received from the C-band DVB data stream enables each user periodically to originate a data request. The data request is transmitted at the indicated time by the user's L-band transmitter. This is received back at the hub station and interpreted by the processor. For small data packets the message will be returned through the DVB data stream with a packet addressed to the user. Voice to the user is time division multiplexed on the DVB channel, and is single channel per carrier on the L-band. Each 5 MHZ DVB channel can carry about 500 10 kbit/sec cellular digital voice channels. The receive antenna comprises a three parabolic dish design receiving vertical and horizontal polarizations from the satellite. The L-band transmit antenna is wire Y agi antenna-either one or two antennas mounted between the circles. The L-band uses the structure of the C-band antenna to point it at the targeted satellite.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention incorporates a L-channel receiver on a satellite and a high-frequency data transmission system for a C-channel system disclosed in some of the patent applications mentioned above. The goal of this terminal is to make a small, inexpensive and versatile two-way communication system. Since these L-channel transmitters have been authorized by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to be used in some mobile application equipment applications, there is no other burden of accreditation requirements.

The description of invention (6) takes a long time. The most expensive part of the conventional L-channel communication system is the transmission from the satellite to the small L-channel receiver. This satellite to vS at downlink requires high satellite power due to the size of the user's L-channel receiver and its corresponding small omnidirectional antenna. On the uplink, the user ’s L-channel signal to the satellite arrives at the satellite; it relays the L-channel signal back to the central station on the ground; its signal is significantly larger and requires less satellite power, so it is more Cheap. Compared to the next winter, the most expensive part of the C-channel communication system is the uplink from the user to the satellite and sent back to the ground station. This is due to the small size of these transmitting antennas and the transmission to the resultant power of the user-to-satellite, satellite-to-center links and the satellites. In addition, the broadcaster should bear the cost of the downlink; each user must bear the cost of the uplink. The present invention basically removes the most inefficient part of these two systems and combines the remaining parts to develop a hybrid communication system with extremely high operating efficiency. Even though the parabolic dish antenna can be used for transmission and reception, the uplink of the L channel is cheaper than the uplink channel of the C-channel at 4/60 billion Hz. 0 Technology In addition, the present invention provides a hybrid combined modulation technology that efficiently supplies each device. In order to transmit this high-speed data transmission rate signal to the user through the C channel, the present invention uses a multichannel per carrier modulation technology like some mpeg television standards (multichannel per carrier modulation -9- This paper standard applies to Chinese national standards ( CNS) Λ4 specification (210X297mm) 40740¾ Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Inventive Techniques; These MPEG TV standards use direct video broadcasting and focus on the orthogonality of the Video Broadcast 'DVB) standard Phase angle shift key (QpsK) modulation. In the general MPEG format, compressed television signals (data) can be transmitted to users in one or more data channels in a multiplexed manner. The present invention uses these data channels to deliver voice and / or on-demand data to the user. Voice and / or data in an MPEG data stream exists in a time division multiplexed (TDM) format. The uplink of the L-channel uses quadrature phase shift keying (QpSK) or equivalent energy efficient single channel modulation (ehannei modulation). The data transmission rate can be adjusted to its maximum value as required; for example, 10,000 bits per second. If the compressed speech is the strongest input data when applied. The access protocol is required to order these stations to use the input channel in order. Some applications The L-channel communication part of this system is a relatively low-speed data transmission link. More specifically, this link transmits some applications like voice, or low-speed data transfer rates, but not video applications or higher-speed data transfer rates. Some of the C channel communication parts of this system are a relatively high-speed data transmission link. This link carries some video signals. Compress the TV signal or some other broadband signal. These signals are preferably in the MpEGi format, which can be MPEG-2, MPEG-3 or MPEG-4. In the products to be made, these TV signals are distributed from the service area to the indoor one-way direct to indoor -10- M's Zhang scale appropriate / f) Zhongli Jiabiao Bi (Yi Yiding ... ----- --0 (Read the first note on the back # 'Fill this page) Printed by the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Cooperatives, 40740 ^ 7 5. Description of Invention (8) Part of (DTH) TV. Some two-way low-speed data transmission The rate application usually only takes up a small part of the service capacity direct to the indoor DTH TV. (Up to the satellite, down to the L channel socket station receiver) The L channel low-speed data transmission rate channel will come from some users The voice or data signal is transmitted to the socket center. In this DVB channel, a general digital data channel on an MPEG-Π data stream can transmit voice or data from the socket center to the user. So, from the user to this There are two-way voice or low-speed data rate channels in the center. Obviously, once data appears in the center, this data can be delivered to the appropriate location using some other known communication link; these known communication link Like a public telephone s ^ yitched network or the Internet. The advent of L-channel uplinks has created a hybrid system that allows wider-band applications. For example, the invention Can meet the needs of a large amount of downlink links' but only fairly small uplink arbitrary applications; the invention can be used in all directions for some low-speed data rate transmission of some applications. One example is direct broadcast interactive television ( direct broadcast interactive television); Among them, the user receives the television broadcast and sends back some data (for example, order or payment message). If the L channel and C channel equipment can be installed in the same central station at the same time, the operation will be simpler. After receiving many input signals from the L channel receiver, the center station equipment will transmit the data scheduled to be transmitted to the satellite to some C channel input data ports. The bottom edge of the device will be connected to some databases in the center (data banks) connected via fiber-optic cable or -11-This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 210X297 mm) „------ install-(please read the note on the back, the item # 'to fill out this page), 3 printed by the Central Standards Bureau, the Consumers' Cooperative of the Ministry of Economics and Economics ----- --- ----------- V.

As far as data is concerned, the Contains some DVB signals that are transmitted downstream to the user, carrying some packets used to process requests from some distant users to respond (some existing technologies are available). This data stream receives the data stream from the DVB data stream of the C channel, so that each user can send data requests regularly. The user's L-channel transmitter transmits the data request at the indicated time according to the frequency specified by the preset data packet. The incoming pricket is retrieved at the central station and interpreted by the processor. For some small data packets, the DVB data stream is used to enclose a mailing packet given to the user and return this message. It is suitable for one bet and one pay per viewing. You can use this message to approve the order; release a security decoder to prevent the channel from being scrambled and eavesdropped; or you can direct the user's device to a DVB channel equipped with a film close to the request. In another application, the response could send a large data file to the user; for example, 'Encyclopedia Britannica', some TV playbooks, all photos completed by Marilyn Monroe, and all photos from last week New page etc ...

Description of the invention (10 40740 ^ The DVB data channel printed by the Consumers' Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs transmits the voice to the user on channel c. The voice from the single channel is used for each L channel Carriers on the carrier. Each DVB channel of 5 million hertz (5MHz) can make 500 channels with approximately 10,000 bits of cellular digital speech per second.

Antennas The hardware of the terminal equipment used by the users in these three applications is the same. The direct receive antenna designed in the US patent application number 08 / 259,980 (previously appended for making Reference) Can receive some vertically and horizontally polarized radio waves from satellites. The L-channel transmitting antenna is a metal Yagi antenna; the preferred antenna type is one or two antenna frames mounted between these circles.

When the Yugi Yagi antennas 5 and 6 are placed at the positions shown in the figure, and their directions are adjusted to the same direction as the C channel dish 2, 3 '4, the power required for the uplink is relatively The use of omnidirectional antennas for L-channel mobile applications can be greatly reduced. Fig. 1A shows an example of a side view and a front view of a single-polarized version of the Yagi antenna 5 used in the present invention. FIG. 1B shows an example of a front view and a side view of a multiple polarizatipn version of the l-channel antenna used in the present invention. Note 'In this example of multiple polarizations, two windings 2 1, 2 2' perpendicular to the axis 23 of this direction are placed perpendicular to each other in order to obtain vertical and horizontal polarized waves at the same time; In the single polarization example, only a metal wire 21 perpendicular to the direction axis 23 is used. Phase networks can also be used to combine these horizontal and vertical polarizations to produce right-handed and left-handed circular polarizations. It is also possible to use one or two of the existing C channel discs 2, 3, and 4 to feed the L and C channels. However, the feeder organization may be more complicated than the individual Yagi antennas 5,6. The Yagi antennas 5 and 6 are the same as roof antennas of home televisions, except that they are smaller in shape; because the frequency used is twice the frequency used by the ultra-high frequency (UHF) of broadcast television. The combination of the two antennas reduces the required power by half; therefore, the symmetrical design of Figure 1 is better with two antennas. The selection of the crossed antenna (illustrated in Figure iB). If the satellite uses a circular polarization receiving method, the antenna combination can transmit vertical polarization and horizontal polarization. -14- The dimensions are applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) --------- M ------ 3T ——.---- ^ (谙 Read the notes on the back first i (Fill in this page again.)

The Yagi antennas 5 and 6 are only thin metal wires on a metal iUbe. It is made flexible and reinforced as thinly as possible; however, it still meets the available requirements. If it is blackened, the proximity of some C-channel reflectors 2, 3'4 will hardly detect the existence of Yagi antennas 5,6. The Yagi antennas 5 and 6 are placed between the circles of the C channels 2, 3, and 4; so that they do not interfere with the receiving pattern of the C channel antennas. See Figure 1. Although there are other possible ways to combine L-channel and c-channel components, this method is definitely the most efficient one. The present invention provides an array of two-way services that does not substantially change the DTH television element.
