==Techniques for End-to-End Beamforming with Multiple Areas of Simultaneous User Coverage - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240235634 titled 'Techniques for End-to-End Beamforming with Multiple Areas of Simultaneous User Coverage

'''Simplified Explanation:'''
The patent application describes a satellite communications system and method that provides service to multiple user terminals in different coverage areas simultaneously through ground-based, end-to-end beamforming.

* Ground-based, end-to-end beamforming is performed simultaneously for multiple non-overlapping user coverage areas.
* The system supports a number of simultaneous beams in both forward and reverse directions.
* Capacity allocations for each user coverage area are determined by controlling the allocation of beams.
* A multiplicity of transmit/receive paths onboard the satellite enables end-to-end beamforming.
* Controlling the allocation of transmit/receive paths to respective user coverage areas is crucial for efficient operation.
