Abstract
A mobile terminal for satellite communication of voice data, facsimile and computer information, which consists of an RF transceiver section, and a processor board. The processor board has two digital signal processors and a multi-task control processor for controlling the operation of the two signal processors. Net radio service is implemented in the mobile terminal and includes a priority 1 mode wherein a channel search is performed on a net radio channel database for an available channel if any problem is initially encountered in obtaining control of a specific communication channel such as a channel currently in use or a channel designated for use as a default channel.
