• FEC coding choices ranging from 1/2 to 6/7
• New IP payload block sizes available
• Supports easy mapping of existing TPC to 2D 16-State configurations
• QPSK-3/4 2D 16-State can replace the 0.66 TPC 1K block
• Provides a 15% improvement in spectral efficiency
• No changes required to link budget, RF gear, carrier symbol rates or power
• Available on Evolution remotes & line cards with DVB-S2 outbound
• Benefits
• Offering more granular FEC and block size choices than TPC or LDPC
• Efficiency gains on average of 1dB
• Additional cost savings from the use of smaller antenna and BUC sizes
• Easy implementation as no new network design is required
Advanced IP Routing

Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM)
How it works
• Requires an auto-pointing antenna with GPS integrated with the remote
• Beam server in the NMS contains footprint information for all beams on all satellites
in the global network
• Depending on signal quality and location, the router either remains in the current
network or switches to a higher-quality network
• Router initiates an automatic antenna re-pointing and acquires the new network
carriers
Benefits
• Enables simple network management of a global network
• Powerful monitoring and control from a central location eliminating visits to the
ship for configuration changes
• Eliminates burdensome, manual intervention in order to maintain connectivity
when ship crosses footprints
• Provides a consistent end-user experience
