We have developed a direct spectrum division transmission (DSDT) technique that can divide a single-carrier signal into multiple sub-spectra and assign them to dispersed frequency resources of the satellite transponder to improve the spectrum efficiency of the whole system. This paper summarizes the satellite experiments on DSDT over a single and/or multiple satellite transponders, while changing various parameters such as modulation schemes, roll-off ratios, and symbol rates. In addition, by considering practical use conditions, we present an evaluation of the performance when the spectral density of each sub-spectrum differed across transponders. The satellite experiments demonstrate that applying the proposal does not degrade the bit error rate (BER) performance. Thus, the DSDT technique is a practical approach to use the scattered unused frequency resources over not only a single transponder but also multiple ones.

This paper proposes Direct Spectrum Division Transmission with spectrum editing technique. The transmitter divides the single carrier modulated signal into multiple “sub-spectra” in the frequency domain and arranges each sub-spectrum so as to more fully utilize the unused frequency resources. In the receiver, the divided sub-spectra are combined in the frequency domain and demodulated. By editing the divided spectrum in the frequency domain, the total bandwidth occupied by the multiple “sub-spectra” is less than that of the modulated signal. The proposed technique allows the unused frequency resources scattered across the bands to be better utilized. Simulations show that the proposed technique makes the bit error rate negligible.
