Abstract

A method includes receiving a first antenna stream from a first feeder link to a first non-terrestrial network payload, wherein the first antenna stream includes signals transmitted by terminal devices that are synchronized in time, receiving a second antenna stream from a second feeder link to a second non-terrestrial network payload, wherein the second antenna stream includes signals transmitted by the terminal devices that are not synchronized in time, storing the first and second antenna streams in buffers, obtaining a first timing advance, obtaining a second timing advance, obtaining an estimation of timing offset based on the timing advances, obtaining the second antenna stream from a second one of the buffers and performing timing offset compensation to the second antenna stream based on the estimation of the timing offset, and obtaining the first antenna stream from a first one of the buffers synchronized with the second antenna stream.
