Abstract
A time-division multiple-access synchronisation scheme is described that uses a minimal bandwidth of a satellite global beam transponder with most traffic being transmitted through a spot beam transponder. Such a scheme is ideally suited to the next generation of communication satellites in which extensive use is likely to be made of spot beam antennas to achieve `frequency reuse¿.
