Regenerative Satellite Mesh – A

Regenerative Satellite Mesh – A (RSM-A) is an internationally standardized satellite communications protocol by Telecommunications Industry Association and European Telecommunications Standards Institute.

It is based upon the Spaceway Ka-band communications system developed by Hughes Network Systems. It is expected to be utilized by the Hughes Network Systems satellite called Spaceway-3.

The standard is meant to provide broadband capabilities of up to 512 kbit/s, 2 Mbit/s, and 16 Mbit/s uplink data communication rates with fixed Ka-band satellite terminal antennas sized as small as 77 cm.

The standard consists of the following documents:

  • TIA-1040.1.01 Physical Layer Specification; Part 1: General Description
  • TIA-1040.1.02 Physical Layer Specification; Part 2: Frame Structure
  • TIA-1040.1.03 Physical Layer Specification; Part 3: Channel Coding
  • TIA-1040.1.04 Physical Layer Specification; Part 4: Modulation
  • TIA-1040.1.05 Physical Layer Specification; Part 5: Radio Transmission and Reception
  • TIA-1040.1.06 Physical Layer Specification; Part 6: Radio Link Control
  • TIA-1040.1.07 Physical Layer Specification; Part 7: Synchronization
  • TIA-1040.2.01 MAC/SLC Layer Specification; Part 1: General Description
  • TIA-1040.2.02 MAC/SLC Layer Specification; Part 2: SLC Layer
  • TIA-1040.2.03 MAC/SLC Layer Specification; Part 3: ST-SAM interface
