<p>A method and system of forming communication links in a satellite communications system. The satellite communications system includes a plurality of transmitter groups, a satellite and a plurality of downlink receivers. Each transmitter is associated with only one transmitter group. At least two transmitters of two separate transmitter groups are disposed geographically adjacent to each other. Each transmitter of a transmitter group transmits an uplink communications signal that is a CDMA signal having a predetermined code that is selected from a code set assigned to the group of transmitters with which the transmitter is associated. Each respective code set is different from other code sets associated with selected groups of transmitters and forms a code set pattern that repeats. The satellite receives the uplink communications signals transmitted by the transmitters and transmits each of the received uplink communications signals as a downlink communications signal directed to a different receiver of the plurality of downlink receivers, such that each downlink communications signal includes no more than one downlink communications signal having a predetermined code such that no substantial multipath conditions exist. <IMAGE></p> |
