Model of satellite communication channel functioning under conditions of episodic synchronization with pulse interference flows

The article investigates the effect of pulse interference on information reception in conditions of episodic synchronization of frames of the physical level of a satellite communication channel with streams of radio pulses of unintended interference. An analytical model of the influence of pulse interference on the reception of information in a satellite communication channel under conditions of episodic synchronization of physical-level frames with pulse interference streams is proposed. Using the example of the DVB family of standards, the combined effect of noise and unintended impulse interference on the conditional error probabilities when receiving a synchro group, the service part of the header and the information part of the frame is shown. Estimates of the average number of frames of the physical level for the duration of the interval of episodic synchronization, the number of intervals of episodic synchronization and the proportion of elementary parcels in the frame exposed to interference, depending on the duration of the pulse interference, are given. It is shown that there are such relations between the duration of the interference pulse and the continuity of the sequence, in which the phenomenon of the episodic synchronization of physical-level frames with the flow of pulse interference has a significant impact on the functioning of the satellite communication channel. The dependences of the probability of erroneous reception of a frame of the physical level of a satellite communication channel on the signal-to-interference ratio at the fixed signal-to-noise ratio and on the duration of the interference pulse are obtained. It has been found that at high signal-to-noise ratios and the duration of the interference correlated with the duration of the service part of the frame, but significantly less than the duration of the frame, the probability of erroneous reception of the frame may be higher than at lower signal-to-noise ratios due to errors when receiving the service part of the frames.
