Supplemental satellite communication enhancement technique |
摘要 |
<p>Apparatus for enhancing the communication capabilities of a satellite communication system including an uplink receiver 40 deployable with a first satellite 20 and capable of receiving signals from a ground-based communication station 30. A first processor 50 deployable on satellite 20 is capable of processing signals from uplink receiver 40. A two-way link terminal 60 deployable with satellite 20 is capable of communication with a second two-way intersatellite communication link terminal 220 deployable with a second satellite 200. A first switch 100 deployable with satellite 20 enables signals from uplink receiver 40 to be utilized by communication link terminal 60 or processor 50. A downlink transmitter 80 deployable with satellite 20 is capable of transmitting signals to a ground-based communication station 90. A second switch 110 deployable with satellite 20 enables signals from communication link terminal 60 or first processor 50 to be utilized by downlink transmitter 80. <IMAGE></p> |
