We propose a Wave front Multiplexing Approach to connecting satellite assets using incompatible polarization. Hence, two families of satellite assets using either linearly polarized (LP) antennas or circularly polarized (CP) antennas can be made interoperable. As a motivating example, satellite operators can cost-effectively service Ku-band CP VSAT users enabled by Wave front Multiplexing via LP transponders. Central to our proposed approach is a processing unit that exploits incompatible polarization in a ground hub. In addition, resource (e.g. Power) allocation via Wave front Multiplexing can be performed to meet communication requirements. Service providers that operate Wave front Multiplexing may manage either LP or CP space assets equally well to service CP VSAT terminals. |
