Abstract: A system and method for increasing feeder link capacity in a satellite communication system (100), wherein a gateway (108) communicates with a satellite (102) over a feeder link (112), and wherein the satellite (102) communicates with terrestrial user terminals (106) over a user link (110). A feeder link signal (112) is produced by multiplexing a first BPSK signal and a second BPSK signal (402). The feeder link signal (612) is QPSK modulated, QPSK spread (402). The feeder link signal (612) is transmitted from the gateway (108) to the satellite (102). The satellite (102) demultiplexes the feeder link signal (612), recovering the first and second BPSK signals (702, 704, 706). The first and second BPSK signals are then modulated (502-508)(602-608), to produce a first and second user link signal (832, 834). The user link signals (832, 834) are BPSK modulated, QPSK spread. The user link signals (832,834) are transmitted from the satellite (102) to the user terminals (106).

Abstract: A device for transplanting trees or bushes having at least two spades that can be adjusted against each other. These spades can be set between an open and closed position by means of a pair of attached servo-drives. When in the open position, the spades are removed from each other by a space corresponding at least with a diameter of the tree or the bush to be transplanted. When the spades are in their closed position, they complement each other, forming a partial spherical cup. To reduce the resistance of the spades as they penetrate the soil, the cutting blade of the spade has the shape of a corrugated ground edging. These corrugated ground edges have alternating elevations and recesses, whereby the elevations of the cutting blade provide sufficient stability and safety against breakage. The ground surfaces that oppose each other on these spades are disposed on alternating sides to allow the cutting blades to overlap.
