    Abstract
    Remote sensing satellites are typically low earth orbit, and often transmit the data gathered with the remote sensors to ground stations at locations on earth. These transmissions are band limited, and must operate within a 375 MHz bandwidth in the X-Band spectrum. This can present a limitation to the amount of data that can be transmitted during the short duration of a pass (typically less than 15 minutes). It is then highly desirable to increase the bandwidth efficiency of a system for data transmission in a remote sensing downlink. This paper describes a method of achieving higher efficiency by pre-programming the satellite to adjust the modulation and coding based in at least part on the slant range to the receiving ground station. The system uses variable coding and modulation to adjust to the slant range to the ground station to achieve a throughput increase of more than 50% of the data transferred during a pass using the currently accepted technology.

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
