Can I please get some relevant paper on different algorithms used to estimate the power loss in dB caused due to the atmospheric losses such as ionospheric effects and troposphere effects while performing inter satellite links/communication/ranging (e.g.: MEO to MEO)? I have the entry and exit points in the atmosphere along with satellite coordinates
you may refer to our publications especially for ionospheric delay.
best regards
I think there are lot of models available for this. Refer literature and add one or two factors which causes major losses. There are many factors and all cannot be considered since if we consider all the factors then it eill become more complex.
I would like to calculate the propagation losses in dB (ionosphere, troposphere) when an inter satellite link is established between the MEO-MEO satellite or any two satellites. I am finding many models only for space earth communication and not yet for inter satellite communication. Please suggest one out of many, so that i can later find similar papers.
Communication between MEO and MEO:
Since these are positioned about 20,000 Km from earth, we do not expect any additional loss except free space loss. This can be computed using Frii's equation.
Communication between MEO and Earth surface:
This depends upon the frequency of operation.
