title = "Rateless codes for satellite systems over rain fading channels",
abstract = "Modern satellite systems utilize high frequency bands usually above 15 GHz to provide high speed transmission services, and adopt adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) schemes in order to countermeasure serious rain fading occurred in the utilized frequency bands. This paper introduces an efficient scheme to countermeasure rain fading by using rateless codes. The proposed scheme utilizes existing AMC scheme with the LDPC codes, and thus it can be easily combined with existing standards. The error rate and spectral efficiency performance simulation results demonstrate performance enhancement over a satellite rain fading channel, with almost the same code rate as the existing LDPC codes.",
