You can visualize and model satellite orbits and perform link budget analysis and access calculations. You can generate test waveforms based on DVB-S2, DVB-S2X, CCSDS, and GPS standards. You can also design physical layer algorithms together with RF components and ground station receivers. As all this functionality is provided as open MATLAB code, you can modify and customize each function and use them as reference models for implementing satellite communications systems and devices. ![rf-systems-satellite-communications-white-paper-thumbnail](https://event.techsource-asia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/rf-systems-satellite-communications-white-paper-thumbnail.jpg?width=711&name=rf-systems-satellite-communications-white-paper-thumbnail.jpg "rf-systems-satellite-communications-white-paper-thumbnail") # Highlights Through case studies and examples, you will learn how to: - Visualize 2D and 3D satellite orbits including field of view, ground tracks, and sky plots for navigation. Model satellites with two-body, SGP4, or SDP4 orbit propagators.  - Analyze line-of-sight access and compute link closures from satellites to ground stations or between satellites. Simulate multi-hop communications links between two ground stations. - Analyze, design, and visualize link budgets for satellite communications. Analyze uplinks, downlinks, and crosslinks. Calculate link margins and availability. - Generate DVB-S2, DVB-S2X, CCSDS, and GPS waveforms - Demodulate and decode DVB-S2, DVB-S2X, and CCSDS received waveforms while including effects of RF front-end impairments and corrections. - Use ITU-R P.618 propagation loss models and ETSI-specified Rician and land mobile satellite (LMS) channels for link-level simulations -   *Please allow approximately 45 minutes to attend the presentation and Q&A session. We will be recording this webinar, so if you can't make it for the live broadcast, register and we will send you a link to watch it on-demand.*   # **Product Focus** - [Communications Toolbox](https://www.mathworks.com/products/communications.html)     [![SAVE YOUR SEAT](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/6377406/ea102a6e-3fd4-44f4-809e-6f03642d058e.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/6377406/ea102a6e-3fd4-44f4-809e-6f03642d058e) ## The Speakers **Dr. Houman Zarrinkoub** Senior Product Manager, MathWorks **Dr. Houman Zarrinkoub** is a senior product manager at MathWorks responsible for wireless communications products.
