Abstract:
A method for autoscaling transmitter characteristics wherein the method is incorporated into a satellite system analysis computer program for design selection comprising:(a) defining certain first transmitter characteristics; (b) automatically scaling other first transmitter characteristics based upon the defined first transmitter characteristics; (c) defining the communications link between the first transmitter and one or more receivers; (d) generating first communication link performance data; (e) determining acceptability of the first communications link performance; (f) defining second transmitter characteristics when first communication link performance is unacceptable; (g) automatically scaling other second transmitter characteristics based upon the defined second transmitter characteristics; (h) generating second communications link performance data based upon the second transmitter characteristics; (i) determining acceptability of the second communications link performance; and (j) accepting the revised transmitter characteristics when link performance data is acceptable.
