1 8-QAM, LDPC 2/3 0.3584 1.1468 1.1468 -20% 2.1

Based on this analysis, QPSK, LDPC 2/3 with Carrier-in-Carrier provides the maximum savings of
40%. In addition to 40% reduction in Leased Bandwidth, using Carrier-in-Carrier also reduced the
required HPA Power by almost 40%:

F.2.5.2 Asymmetric Data Rate Link
As occupied (or allocated) bandwidth of a Carrier-in-Carrier circuit is dictated by the larger of the
two carriers, it is strongly recommended that the smaller carrier be spread as much as possible
using a lower order modulation and/or FEC, while meeting the PSD ratio spec. Spreading the
smaller carrier using a lower order modulation has multiple benefits:
•
Lower order modulation is always more robust;
•
Lower order modulation uses less transponder power – this reduces total transponder,
and increases available link margin;
•
Lower order modulation uses less transmit power on the ground – this can significantly
reduce the BUC/SSPA size by not only reducing the transmit EIRP, but also reducing the
BUC/SSPA backoff
