Modern satellites enable high data rate communications for emerging applications like connected cars and 5G. You employ complex modulation schemes to improve spectral efficiency and minimize nonlinear amplification in the RF power amplifier. The selection of modulation schemes for satellite communications depends on the communication channels, hardware limitations, and data throughput requirements.
