Original Abstract Submitted

methods and systems are described for providing end-to-end beamforming. for example, an end-to-end beamforming system include a relay satellite and a ground network to provide communications to user terminals located in user beam coverage areas. the ground network includes geographically distributed access nodes and a central processing system (cps). beamformers of the ground network generate forward uplink signals from appropriately weighted combinations of user data streams that, after relay by the satellite, produce forward downlink signals that combine to form forward user beams.
