Abstract:

A method of evaluating double intelligible crosstalk between two frequency division multiplexed frequency modulated (FDM/FM) carriers accessing the same earth station high-power amplifier (HPA) and satellite transponder traveling wave tube amplifier (TWTA) has been developed. The analysis takes into consideration the AM/AM and AM/PM characteristics of the two cascaded memoryless nonlinear amplifiers, and the amplitude and group delay variations of transmission paths preceding the first nonlinear amplifier and of the path between the two nonlinear amplifiers. Results of the double intelligible crosstalk evaluation show the existence of significant distortion cross terms caused by the two cascaded nonlinearities and filters, in addition to individual distortion terms by each nonlinearity. Specific illustrative examples are discussed, and some practical suggestions are given for controlling crosstalk impairment effects in satellite channels with double cascaded nonlinear amplifiers.
