Abstract :
Experimental results achieved during recent meteor-burst channel communications link operations are discussed. Extrapolations are derived to determine diurnal and seasonal communication statistics. Based on a performance metric of error-free packet reception probability, the tradeoff of the transmission data rate is examined. Efficient communications over the channel require adaptive transmission rates. Such an adaptive scheme is presented, along with the results to indicate the advantages obtained
