Abstract

A method of communicating with multiple satellites includes allocating, based on one or more conditions corresponding to a plurality of spatial channels associated with multiple satellites, each subset of a plurality of subsets of antenna resources of a phased array antenna to a respective different satellite included in the multiple satellites. The method also includes commanding one or more transceivers to establish simultaneous communicative connections to the different satellites via the allocated subsets of antenna resources, and re-allocating, based on a detected change to at least one of the one or more conditions, at least one antenna resource to a respective another different satellite. The method also includes commanding the one or more transceivers to maintain the simultaneous communicative connections to the different satellites using the re-allocated at least one antenna resource.
