Abstract

In satellite communication systems, the cost of a terminal often corresponds to a maximum data rate that the terminal is required to transmit towards a satellite. The higher the data rate, the higher the Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) the terminal may be required to radiate. The EIRP of the terminal is directly proportionate to the transmission power and to the effective area of the antenna. Using coherent transmission combining may facilitate a similar EIRP while reducing the cost of the terminal through using smaller antennas and lower radiated power. Methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer readable media are described herein for facilitating coherent combining of transmissions.
