System and method for controlling ground transceiver communications with a satellite transceiver

摘要

A ground transceiver (16) is configured to communicate with a satellite transceiver (14). The satellite transceiver (14) is configured to receive concurrently a plurality of messages (20) at substantially the same carrier frequency from a plurality of ground transceivers (16, 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D). The ground transceiver (16) includes a transmitter configured to determine a transmit power that the transmitter is authorized to use to transmit a message (20) based on a comparison of a priority threshold and a priority rating of the message (20) to be transmitted.
