A meteor burst communication system (10) has the capability of simultaneously communicating with multiple remote units (14). The meteor burst system includes a base station (12) having a processing unit, or main processor (16), that generates a probe signal (76). A transmitter (54, 56, 58) transmits the probe signal to the remote units. The remote units receive the probe signal and respond to the probe signal by transmitting data signals (78, 80, 82) to the base station. The base station includes a plurality of receivers (38, 40, 42, 44) that receive the data signals from the remote units. A plurality of receiver processors (46, 48, 50, 52) process the data signals received from the remote units, the main processor formulates an acknowledgement signal (84), and the acknowledgement signal is transmitted to the remote units.
