  • Abstract
    This correspondence presents the architecture of a high-speed low-complexity digital receiver for wideband satellite communications supporting multiple baud rates, ranging from 10 to 200 MBaud. The design of the modem is based on the cascaded integrator-comb (CIC) scheme which exploits a parallel processing so as to provide an outstanding decimation agility. Eventually, bit error rate (BER) performance of the multi-rate receiver are assessed by floating-point simulations.
