Abstract
Distributed transmission control for a TDMA system including one or more user networks. A time synchronized burst modem, one at each earth station in a system, transfers TDMA frame timing signals to an interconnected data processing machine. The interconnected data processing machine is then capable of synchronizing information transfer to the time synchronized burst modem in accordance with the received TDMA frame timing signals. Accordingly, each network has available to it, at each data processing machine in the network, TDMA frame timing signals. Accordingly, optimizing information transfer can be effected on a network-by-network basis, wholly independent of overall system TDMA information transfer optimization.
