Multiple Access Techniques

  • Chapter
Satellite Communication Systems

Abstract

This chapter addresses another important aspect of satellite communications — the techniques used to access a satellite so that the satellite spectrum and power are shared efficiently between a large number of users. A brief section projecting the future directions being pursued to improve multiple access schemes has also been included.
