This paper presents a variable rate transmission scheme suitable for bandlimited metoer burst channel. Meteor Burst Communication(MBC)is a unique type of radio communication, which is primarily used for non-realtime remote data collection. In the paper, along with conventional BPSK and QPSK modulations, QAM and M-ary Bi-orthogonal modulations are analyzed for software modem implementation in an MBC system. Performance of the modulation methods is presented for both static AWGN channel and meteor burst channel. The proposed scheme for variable rate transmission dynamically estimates the MBC channel and varies the modulation type of a software modem, to control the transmission rate between bursts. The scheme dynamically selects a modulation type packet length that will maximize the average throughput of the system. Performance of the scheme is analyzed and compared with conventional fixed rate modems. A practical implementation for software modem is suggested that uses a common core modulator/demodulator structure.
