Disclosed is a star network/mesh network accessing method and apparatus of a terminal in a satellite communication system, the method including receiving time slot resources from a central station and operating in a time division multiple access (TDMA) start network communication mode between the central station and a terminal, transferring, to the central station, a TDMA mesh network connection request message for a destination terminal, receiving traffic burst time plan (TBTP) information corresponding to the TDMA mesh network connection request message from the central station and operating in a TDMA mesh network communication mode between terminals, and switching from the TDMA mesh network communication mode between the terminals to a single channel per carrier (SCPC) mesh network communication mode between the terminals when Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) traffic is greater than a threshold.

Apparatus and method for accessing star network/mesh network of time division multiple access (TDMA)/single channel per carrier (SCPC) integrated satellite communication

In a satellite communication system, a central station receives a message including channel measurement information that is provided from a terminal and calculates a channel estimating value based on the received channel measurement information and weather data of a region corresponding to a location of the terminal. The central station determines encoding and modulation methods of data to transmit based on the calculated channel estimating value.
