Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the technology trends pertinent to Ka-band broadcasting satellite systems. Starting from the state-of-the-art digital broadcasting systems, we present technology trends that can further expand the use of Ka-band satellite broadcasting and improve the performance and efficiency. In particular, it is shown that the combination of DVB-S2X features offer significant advances and opportunities to service providers. This is true particularly in geographical areas that are subject to severe atmospheric attenuation.
