[0117] Description of the example BTS and its operation

[0118] The invention will be described in detail with reference to certain, but not necessarily preferred, embodiments of the invention. These particular embodiments are by way of example, and those skilled in the art of multiple access communication systems and orbital mechanics will recognize, after reading this disclosure, that other variations are possible and that this disclosure is not relevant to MSs on the surface of a planetary body and in and around said Various types of multiple access communication systems are associated between spacecraft BTSs operating in various orbits of planetary bodies.

[0119] In many examples herein, the orbits of satellites containing BTSs are shown as circular orbits with an altitude of 500 km, but it is understood that the teachings herein are also applicable to other orbits with corresponding adjustments. In some instances, the BTS functions as or simulates the operation of a...

Abstract

A multiple-access transceiver handles communications with mobile stations in environments that exceed mobile station design assumptions without necessarily requiring modifications to the mobile stations. One such environment is in Earth orbit. The multiple-access transceiver is adapted to close communications with mobile stations while exceeding mobile station design assumptions, such as greater distance, greater relative motion and/or other conditions commonly found where functionality of a terrestrial transceiver is to be performed by an orbital transceiver. The orbital transceiver might include a data parser that parses a frame data structure, a signal timing module that adjusts timing based on orbit to terrestrial propagation delays, frequency shifters and a programmable radio capableof communicating from the Earth orbit that uses a multiple-access protocol such that the communication is compatible with, or appears to the terrestrial mobile station to be, communication between a terrestrial cellular base station and the terrestrial mobile station.
