126097624/21/2026DISH NetworkDenver-Aurora, COSystems and methods for monitoring space segment performance to analyze and correct poor satellite configurationA method for optimizing satellite signal performance in a satellite transmission system. The method includes: obtaining signal data from at least some of the plurality of customer receivers, measuring the signal data from each of the signal beams that were obtained; analyzing metadata from the components of the satellite transmission system, signal source front end controls, and spectral sampling; identifying signal degradation at the satellite spacecraft in the space segment from the signal data of actual spot beam coverage using the measured signal data and the analyzed metadata; and predict...
126097634/21/2026VIASATSan Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos, CASatellite communication with modularized mobile earth stations (MESs)A communication system includes a plurality of MESs arranged at different locations and operating as a unit to communicate with one or more satellites. One of the MESs is configured in a leader mode and each remaining MES of the MESs is configured in a follower mode based on a result of an auto-negotiation. In the leader mode, the one MES manages combining/dividing of satellite-related signals communicated between the one MES and each of the remaining MESs....
126097654/21/2026Hughes Network SystemsWashington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WVOut of band demand assigned multiple accessA system and method for granting demand access to a data network from an Out of band (OOB) network, the method including: locking to an OOB inroute illuminating an OOB coverage area of the OOB network; transmitting an OOB request including a Demand Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA) request for the data network to an OOB Network Management System (NMS) via the OOB inroute; sending, from the OOB NMS, the DAMA request to a data NMS of the data network; and fulfilling the DAMA request....
126103214/21/2026T-MOBILE INNOVATIONSKansas City, MO-KSAerospace system and device for mitigating interference through dynamic uplink power modificationAspects herein provide systems, methods, and media for mitigating uplink degradation, noise, and/or other interference experienced between a user device and a satellite. When the uplink degradation, noise, and/or other interference is below a signal quality threshold, the telecommunications network identifies base stations with coverage areas that overlap with the coverage area of the satellite. The telecommunications network instructs and causes those base stations to modify an amount of power to be utilized on the uplink channel between another user device and the base station. This power mo...
