Abstract
A method and system for determining delays between a primary site and a diverse site in a satellite communication system includes uplinking signal from the primary site and the diverse site. A controller determines a switchover processing time, a communication time between the primary site and the diverse site and a gap time to establish a gap at the receiving device. The controller changes uplinking from the primary site to the diverse site in response to the switchover processing time, the communication time and the gap time.
