List of ModCods
Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) Option
CDM-570A/570AL Satellite Modem with Optional Packet Processor
Adaptive Coding and Modulation, using BPSK, QPSK, 8-ARY, 16-ARY, 32-ARY and
VersaFEC-2 Short-block and Long Block LDPC coding - total of 74 ModCods
5 ksps to 3.0 Msps (Long)
10/100 Base T Ethernet, with auto-negotiated Congestion Control
Automatically reported from remote modem – built in function at the physical
layer – requires no additional overhead
9:1 over range of adaptation
Corresponds to SNR (Es/No) that gives BER = 1 x 10
0.3 dB
Approximately 1 dB/second (higher if Target Eb/No margin > 1 dB)
