A cascaded error control coding scheme for space and satellite communicationAn error control coding scheme for space and satellite communications is presented. The scheme is attained by cascading two codes, the inner and outer codes. Error performance of the scheme is analyzed. It is shown that, if the inner and outer codes are chosen properly, extremely high reliability can be achieved even for a high channel bit-error-rate. Several exmple schemes are studied. One of the example schemes is proposed to NASA for satellite or spacecraft downlink error control.
