摘要
The weather-forecast based Radio Meteorological Operation Planner (RMOP) model for the dynamical link-budget design in satellite communications at Ka-band is described and validated. For the first time, actual received Ka-band data from a deep-space satellite mission (Hayabusa2 mission from JAXA and supported by ESA) were available for operational tests. RMOP-predicted link-budget parameters were delivered in real-time before each scheduled satellite transmission period. After each transmission, received data measured by the ground stations were exploited for the RMOP validation. The data-volume actually received (transmitted and lost) by Hayabusa2 was compared with the one that would have been obtained if the transmission had been configured according to RMOP predictions. The results prove that RMOP model is capable of receiving more than 100% of extra data-volume with respect to the classical link-budget design techniques while keeping data losses under control. A specific approach usable in case of rainy events is described, too. These outstanding results will pave the way to an operative use of the weather-forecast based RMOP model for future satellite missions.
