A Preliminary Design of a TDMA System for FLEETSAT

Abstract

A time division multiplexing scheme is described for use with FLEETSAT. Available communications circuits would be shared among a much larger pool of users by demand assignment, with a central controller allocating satellite resources. The system achieves rapid circuit assignments and preemptions with relatively high efficiency.
