Abstract:This paper designs and develops the relay satellite system simulation software, and simulates the BER performance of 16QAM and 16APSK under the channel condition of ideal channel, I/Q amplitude and phase imbalance, amplitude and frequency characteristics, group delay, phase noise, power amplifier saturation, non-linear channel. The simulation platform gets the relationship between bit error rate and signal to noise ratio under non-linear channel conditions. The relationship is the important basis for improving system technical indexes, and the important reference for subsequent construction and application of the relay satellite system.
