Method to optimize hierarchical modulation for a diversity system

摘要

The present invention involves a method for transmitting data having primary and secondary data. A first transmit signal is transmitted from a first communication satellite wherein the first transmit signal is produced when the transmitter modulates the primary and secondary data on a first carrier wave associated with the first communication satellite, with secondary data having a first polarity. A second transmit signal is transmitted from a second communication satellite wherein said second transmit signal is produced when the transmitter modulates the primary and secondary data on a second carrier wave associated with the second communication satellite with secondary data having a second polarity opposite the first polarity.
