In this paper we investigate the effectiveness of iterative (turbo) synchronization at improving the link reliability of digital video broadcasting return channel via satellite (DVB-RCS) for different modulation schemes in the presence of strong phase noise. We also propose a multi-user scheme that enables two remote terminals, each using QPSK, to simultaneously use the same frequency band. All additional complexity is located at the central hub receiver, while remote terminals use traditional DVB-RCS transceivers. The new scheme achieves the same system throughput as a single-user with 16APSK, thought of for second generation DVB-RCS (DVB-RCS 2), but with existing DVB-RCS remote terminals, and can be used with future DVB-RCS 2 systems to provide more scheduling flexibility.

To solve the problem of loss of interest in Fantasy Football over the season, a game-changing strategy was thought of which led to the creation of this idea. Powered by an exhaustive dataset of all football statistics from 1992 i.e. the start of the Premier League era, it seemed exciting to allow the use of Data Mining techniques to forecast future statistics. A points system based on the success of predictions (explained later in detail), which in turn allow buying/auctioning better players adds a greater interactive feeling to the existing FPL system. This would prevent the churning of players of the season, since they would be attracted to getting more points and better players through such predictions.
