<p>A system and method for improving communication between two user terminals in a telecommunication system is disclosed. When two user terminals, such as in a satellite-based system with a terrestrial network interface, switch from a double-hop connection with the network to a single-hop connection with each other, communication is established according to the present invention by synchronizing the protocol parameters between the two user terminals, which in the double-hop connection were separately synchronized with the network.</p> |
