that are taken into account in the deep-space link budget tool are exhibited. Additionally, a practical methodology, for the selection of the main signaling
parameters (modulation order, code rate, slot width)
without resorting to lengthy coded (BER) evaluations
is presented. Finally, employing the proposed tool a
sensitivity analysis of various hypothetical deep-space
missions is presented.
