Abstract

A relay satellite receives, from stations on the ground, modulated high-frequency signals situated in two different frequency bands. One of the modulations is narrow band and the other broad band. The satellite retransmits a multiplexed signal resulting from the phase modulation, of a sub-carrier consisting of the signal modulated by the narrow band modulation. The phase modulation is performed using signals drawn from the signals that carry the broad-band modulation. The user stations receive this multiplexed signal and extract therefrom, by filtering, the narrow band modulated sub-carrier, which can be used for phase-demodulating the multiplexed signal in order to recover signals which carry the broad-band modulation.
