Chapter 7. EDMAC CHANNEL

7.1Theory Of Operation

As explained earlier, EDMAC is an acronym for Embedded Distant-end Monitor And Control. This is a feature, which permits the user to access the M&C features of modems that are at the distant-end of a satellite link.

This is accomplished by adding extra information to the user’s data, but in a manner, which is completely transparent to the user.

On the transmit side:

The data is split into frames - each frame containing 1008 bits (except Rate 21/44 BPSK Turbo, or when the data rates exceed 2048 kbps, where the frame length is 2928 bits, and Rate 5/16 BPSK Turbo where the frame length is 3072 bits). 48 bits in each frame are overhead, and the rest of these bits are the user’s data. This increases the rate of transmission by 5% (approximately 1.5% for the Turbo BPSK cases, and for all data rates greater than 2.048 Mbps). For example, if the user’s data rate is 64 kbps, the actual transmission rate will now be at 67.2 kbps.

At the start of each frame a 12-bit synchronization word is added. This allows the demodulator to find and lock to the start of frame. At regular intervals throughout the frame, additional data bytes and flag bits are added (a further 36 bits in total). It is these additional bytes, which convey the M&C data.
