Abstract: In this lecture satellite communication system consisting the earth transmitting station and the satellite transponder is considered. SSC diversity technics are used on receiving satellite and receiving earth stations to reduce fading influence to the system performances. The presence of Rayleigh fading on receiving satellite and receiving earth stations is observed. For this model and phase modulated signals (PSK) the system error probability is determined.
