CDM-550T Satellite Modem
Notes:
1) OQPSK values are the same as QPSK
2) In framed (EDMAC)modes, no RS, add 0.2 dB to the values of Eb/No shown
3) In RS modes, no EDMAC, add 0.4 dB to the values of Eb/No shown
4) In RS modes with EDMAC, add 0.6 dB to the values of Eb/No shown
5) Consult Factory for information on Rate 21/44 and Rate 5/16 Turbo BPSK
