The satellite channel is modelled by two- state M ood and the other bad channel conditions. The sig fading corrupts the sig Q sig P S K nal in the g nal ex hibits R ood channel state.

The coding ayleig P S K sig h/ L og ark ov process, normal fading our coding in the bad channel state, modulation schemes, nal with coding rate 1/ 2 modulation schemes are selected observing linear predictor forecasts the channel performance in the nex where one state denotes g or 1/ 4 , while the R namely uncoded 16- Q are transmitted according the received sig nal streng A icean M or to the th indicator. The t transmission interval. The simulation results show that the adaptive rate system with linear prediction can be efficiently used for pedestrian speed, while the channel variation due to vehicle speed in city and rural environment is too fast to be accurately forecast by linear predictor. 1 .

The bad state represents the poor channel as a result of sig channel is in a terrestrial .

The obstacles around mobile terminal reflect the radio sig multiple copies of transmitted sig are k depends on the environment, the nal in L and multipath fading receiver without reflections. The reflections cause additional delay and attenuation of the sig distortion caused by where easurements of the received sig nal in land mobile satellite channel suffers mainly from shadowing obstacle is placed in propag in uality of the received sig or only transmission mode, S i.e. the modulation and coding via return channel to the transmitter. Thus, feedback I can only be scheme and and processing delay, modulation schemes and the rate of channel variation determine the performance of adaptive rate communication systems. The propag systems it may cause sig ation delay in terrestrial communication systems is relatively low, nificant deg radation of system performance, while in satellite but with the efficient prediction techniq ue the system performance can be improved.

The measurements of the received mobile terminal show that two states of channel ex hibits shadowing L ists: g ood channel state when the sig nal does not and bad channel state when the satellite is not visible from the mobile terminal. A narrowband model based on measurements was proposed in [ 3 two- state ]. I n narrowband communication systems the sig nal bandwidth is smaller than the coherence bandwidth of the transmission channel. This is valid for systems with data rates up to 1M bit/ s. The channel model proposed in [ 3 is shown in F ig ] describes the statistical behaviour of the satellite channel. The model . 1.
