Abstract

The Deep Space Network is interested in predicting whether it will be able to achieve a satisfactory performance level on Pioneer Venus 1978 (PV’78) telemetry over a fading channel. In an earlier article, a theoretical model for the combined effects of log-normal fading and a noisy carrier reference on sequentially decoded phase-shift keyed (PSK) telemetry was used to analyze the PV’78 large probe link at 256 bps. This model is now applied to the 16-bps small probe telemetry mode. L 11/6
