Abstract
A system and method for providing terminals with permitted power spectral density (PSD) limits for regions of a coverage area including: dividing a coverage area into regions, each region having a boundary; assigning a PSD limit to each region; receiving a location of a transmitting entity; determining a transmitting entity region from the regions based on the location; and transmitting with a respective PSD limit of the transmitting entity region.
Claims20
A non-transient computer-readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, the instructions being executable by one or more processors to perform a method for providing a power spectral density (PSD) limit, the method comprising:
- assigning a PSD limit and a boundary to regions of a coverage area of a satellite;
- determining a terminal region from the regions based on a location of a terminal;
- setting a terminal PSD limit to the PSD limit associated with the terminal region;
- receiving a periodic location update at a centralized beam selector (CBS);
- determining the terminal PSD limit and a beam selection;
- providing the terminal PSD limit and the beam selection to the terminal;
- and
- transmitting a burst from the terminal, wherein a PSD of the burst is less than or equal to the terminal PSD limit.
