Downlink beam hopping waveform

摘要

A frame signal ( 100 ) for communicating payloads ( 104, 110 ) of data includes a first payload field ( 104 ) and a first header field ( 102 ) with a first frame type indicator ( 120 ). The frame signal ( 100 ) also includes a second payload field ( 110 ) and a second header field ( 108 ) smaller than the first header field ( 102 ) that includes a second frame type indicator ( 128 ). The first payload field ( 104 ), first header field ( 102 ), second payload field ( 110 ), and the second header field ( 108 ) are encapsulated in a single frame ( 100 ) to provide multiple payload delivery with reduced overhead compared to individually transmitted single payload frames.
