Multifunction TDMA Techniques.

Abstract

Concepts and techniques needed to instrument time division multiple access (TDMA) satellite communication systems containing a large number of small, highly-mobile terminals, e.g. aircraft, are being developed under a three year contract with the United States Air Force. Progress made during the second year of that contract is described in the report. The work has involved the development of prototype TDMA satellite communication modems and the evolution of techniques and associated technological bases needed to incorporate adaptive null-steering arrays in TDMA systems. An overview of the results obtained to date is given and the tasks to be performed during the remainder of the contract are described.
