TDMA Space Communications Systems: Concepts and Practical Techniques.
Abstract
The results of investigations conducted over the past five years directed at the development of practical techniques for instrumenting TDMA systems are placed in perspective. The rationale for selecting the particular TDMA concept developed, the advantages and limitations of the associated techniques, the design options available, and potential concept applications are presented in varying degrees of detail. It is shown that, through the use of differential detection to demodulate the data-carrying pulses and sampled-data delay-lock loops to accurately time the up-links, a TDMA system which is efficient, effective, and flexible can be instrumented. Procedures for using the previously documented technological base to design two hypothetical systems are illustrated. Satellite processing concepts which are compatible with the basic TDMA techniques developed are described. (Author)
