Page 351: Background
The CDM-760 system was originally based on DVB-S2 standards. New network specifications such as DVB-S2-EB1 have been released by Comtech EF Data since the initial release of the CDM- 760. The DVB-S2 network specification in the CDM-760 offers 24 MODCODs that work over a guaranteed Es/No range of 1.2dB to 16.5dB.
Page 352: Table G-2. Modcod Comparison: Acm Vs. Ccm
Appendix G Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 For a 20 Msps link, this corresponds to the data rates listed in Table G-1. Table G-2 compares the ACM link with its CCM counterpart. In ACM mode, the link operates most of the time with clear sky conditions at 34.49 Mbps and drops back to 23.20 Mbps only when the link is faded.

The additional impairment allows programming of an offset for each DVB-S2 constellation type, which will ideally match the estimated satellite link distortion. These impairments apply to the forward (transmit) link. The factors are added to CDM-760 specified Es/No for a given constellation. Table G-4 describes the impairment entry.

Comtech EF Data’s DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier option adds a new dimension to satellite communication optimization. J.1.1 What is DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier?

Page 395: Application Requirements
• Link must be full duplex. • A CDM-760 must be used at the end of the link where the cancellation needs to take place. Normally, this is both ends of the link. • The transponder is operated as Loopback. That is, each end of the link must be able to see a copy of its own signal in the downlink path from the satellite.

Appendix J Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 3) Atmospheric effects: Fading and scintillation can affect amplitude, phase, and spectral composition of the signal and the degree to which it correlates with the original signal. The CnC module tracks and compensates for these atmospheric related impairments.
Page 397: System Functionality And Operational Considerations
The transponder downlinks the composite signal containing both carriers on the same band to the CDM-760 which then translates the signal to near baseband where it can be filtered (decimated) and then processed as a complex envelope signal. The CDM-760 then suppresses the version of the near end carrier on the downlink side and then passes the desired carrier to the demodulator for normal processing.
Page 398 The only caveat to this is that the waveform must be sufficiently random. CDM-760 CnC operates from 1 to 63 Msps. Interference will compromise CnC links just as they do non-CnC links. Acquisition of the demodulator is improved by minimizing the delay search range;...

Page 416: Appendix K. Quality Of Service (Qos
SERVICE (Q Overview Quality of Service (QoS) is available when the CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem is equipped with the optional High-Speed Packet Processor. Use of WAN QoS is typically required either to filter traffic or perform traffic shaping. WAN QoS should be considered if your traffic or satellite link meets either criteria and the traffic is packet-based.
Page 417: Traffic Shaping Functionality (Qos
“QoS rule”. The more flexible a classification engine is, the more likely the high value services can be protected. The CDM-760 offers a very flexible classification engine. If a packet satisfies more than one classification, Table K-1 lists the classification types that determine which rule is chosen. The table shows a precedence from 1 to 8, where any packet satisfying more than one rule is classified by the order of precedence from first to last.
Page 418: Max/Priority Mode
Prioritization ensures that the packets/frames are “ordered” such that the highest level of protection is provided to the most valuable traffic. The CDM-760 offers eight priority levels (Table K-2), with Level 1 being the highest priority and Level 8 the lowest priority.
Page 419: Min/Max Mode
Appendix K Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 point, a packet arrives into the modem that has a higher priority than what the modem is currently draining, the modem will stop draining the lower-priority traffic and will immediately drain the higher-priority traffic until all higher-priority traffic is drained, or until the Maximum Data Rate of the QoS classification is met.
Page 420: Diffserv Mode
Appendix K Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 When you enable the Filter option for a rule, all packets that meet this classification rule will be discarded.

L.1.1 What is Dynamic Predistortion (DPD)? Dynamic Predistortion works in tandem with a Crest Factor Reduction (CFR) technique that is dynamically applied to enhance performance.
Page 430: L.1.2 Predistortion
Since the best predistorter for a particular satellite transponder is unknown, one must be identified through a training process. See Figure L-4. The CDM-760 can train the predistorter according to either of these approaches: •...
Page 431 Appendix L Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 Figure L-5. Indirect Learning – Local Approach Figure L-6. Indirect Learning – Remote Approach In both approaches, the training procedure is essentially the same. The training procedure starts by initializing the predistorter to be a pass-through system, i.e. signal S* equals signal S. Then, the downlink signal S’...
Page 432: Crest Factor Reduction (Cfr
Appendix L Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 The predistorter alters the uplink signal particularly in terms of the signal’s magnitude distribution. Due to this, the new ‘best’ inverse system identified on the next iteration will differ slightly. After several iterations (typically 5-10), the complex coefficients converge for the current conditions.
Page 433: Dpd - Operational Requirements
The link must include a “loop-back” circuit (i.e. the transmitting station must be able to receive its own outbound). • Local DPD requires the use of the modem’s Rx signal chain. Consequently, the CDM-760 will operate in Transmit Only mode when local DPD is enabled. ACM cannot be employed as a result.
Page 434: Dpd - Operational Recommendations
Appendix L Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 • The satellite must be a “non-processing” satellite (i.e. does not demodulate/remodulate the signal). Figure L-9. Remote DPD – Satellite Links DPD – Operational Recommendations The DPD function has not been shown to provide significant benefit with smaller constellations of QPSK or 8-PSK since these are not affected as much by nonlinear distortion.
Page 435: Commissioning And Deployment
L.4.1.1 Local DPD Commissioning and Deployment Comtech EF Data recommends the following procedure for local DPD commissioning. Though a loop-back is created in this procedure, this does not create a loop in the user network since the received data is intentionally prevented from leaving the modem when in local DPD mode.
Page 436: Remote Dpd Commissioning And Deployment
L.4.1.2 Remote DPD Commissioning and Deployment Comtech EF Data recommends the following procedure for remote DPD commissioning. In this procedure, DPD is applied to the link originating from Site A. DPD training is conducted at Site B. Since the bandwidth of the link originating from Site B is expected to be below 20 Msps, DPD will not be applied to this carrier even though DPD will be ‘enabled’...
Page 437: Example Results
Appendix L Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 5. Basic performance validation: a. Measure/record the DPD compensation at Site A. b. Measure/record the Es/No at Site B. c. Turn DPD function OFF at both sites and compare the measured Es/No and BER, assuming the demodulator is able to achieve lock.

Page 439: Other Considerations
Appendix L Revision 4 CDM-760 Advanced High-Speed Trunking Modem MN-CDM760 Other Considerations ® ® L.6.1 DPD and DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier DPD cannot be used with DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier since this would involve transmitting two carriers simultaneously over the same transponder. DPD can only compensate for the nonlinear transponder in a single-carrier-per-transponder application.
