Abstract
This chapter deals with the use of spread spectrum as an overlay technique to aid in synchronization of an extended satellite network. It is written against a specific example which derived from an actual problem on which the authors worked. The satellite functioned as a frequency translating “bent pipe” transponder. It had no beacon and there was no guaranteed dissemination of station keeping information to the network operations center.
