Abstract

A satellite communications system can use a spread-spectrum waveform and format, a synchronization scheme, and/or a power management algorithm. This approach can provide benefits such as allowing every terminal to communicate with every other terminal, link margin permitting. This gives the network a mesh topology although it can be configured in a star topology for highly asymmetric applications. A further understanding of the nature and the advantages of particular embodiments disclosed herein may be realized by reference of the remaining portions of the specification and the attached drawings.
