Scope

GB/T 45724-2025 is the English-translated version of 遥感卫星的星地数传链路设计方法.

GB/T 45724-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering the link that brings imagery down from a remote sensing satellite — the input parameters taken from the satellite transmitter, the ground station and the path between them, the calculation of EIRP, of the station figure of merit, of free space, atmospheric, polarisation and pointing losses and of rain attenuation, the energy per bit to noise density ratio that follows, and the margin that decides whether the link closes in bad weather. A link designed with no margin is one the satellite cannot download through when it rains. First edition, under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In force from 1 December 2025. Issued on 30 May 2025, it has been in force since 1 December 2025.

Introduction

The satellite-to-ground data transmission link is the channel for satellite to transmit data to the ground, which is related to the efficiency and quality of satellite data transmission to the ground.

The design of the ground data transmission link is one of the key technical links in satellite engineering, and it is also the key to enable the satellite to quickly and effectively download the collected data.

An important guarantee for transmission.

Remote sensing satellite data has the characteristics of large data volume and high data transmission rate. In order to meet the demand for high-speed data transmission between satellite and ground, polarization frequency complex The application of technologies such as Ka-band data transmission, high-order modulation and demodulation system and efficient encoding and decoding has become the core of remote sensing satellite satellite data transmission.

The introduction of these technologies has put forward new requirements for the design of satellite-to-ground data transmission links for remote sensing satellites.

The satellite-to-ground data transmission link design method provides a basis for the formulation of technical indicators and performance evaluation for the design, development, and testing of engineering systems, which is helpful Reduce technical risks of satellite-ground systems.
