Inter-Plane Inter-Satellite Connectivity in LEO Constellations: Beam Switching vs. Beam Steering
Israel Leyva-Mayorga, Maik Röper, Bho Matthiesen +3
Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations rely on inter-satellite links (ISLs) to provide global connectivity. However, one significant challenge is to establish and maintain…
CMDNet: Learning a Probabilistic Relaxation of Discrete Variables for Soft Detection with Low Complexity
Edgar Beck, Carsten Bockelmann, Armin Dekorsy
Following the great success of Machine Learning (ML), especially Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), in many research domains in 2010s, several ML-based approaches were proposed for detec…
LEO Small-Satellite Constellations for 5G and Beyond-5G Communications
Israel Leyva-Mayorga, Beatriz Soret, Maik Röper +4
The next frontier towards truly ubiquitous connectivity is the use of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) small-satellite constellations to support 5G and Beyond-5G (B5G) networks. Besides enhan…
