Abstract
A system and method adapted to support a satellite component as generic access in the terrestrial mobile networks. The present invention uses the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) baseline standard, 3GPP Generic Access Network (GAN) to support a Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) satellite component at the physical, Radio Link Control (RLC) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers, with the terrestrial standards based in the Generic Access Protocol architecture framework.
Claims28
A method of interfacing a User Terminal (UT) or Mobile Station (MS) to a mobile telecommunications system, comprising the step of:
- using a baseline standard to support a mobile satellite service (MSS) satellite component at the physical, Radio Link Control (RLC) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers with a conventional terrestrial standard to support Voice and packet Data services and applications.
A mobile telecommunications system, comprising:
- a means in a User Terminal (UT) or Mobile Station (MS) for using a baseline standard to support a mobile satellite service (MSS) satellite component at the physical, Radio Link Control (RLC) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers with a conventional terrestrial standard.
A User Terminal (UT) for use in a mobile communications system, comprising a means for using a baseline standard to support a mobile satellite service (MSS) satellite component at the physical, Radio Link Control (RLC) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers with a conventional terrestrial standard.
