Abstract :
The authors describe a cost-effective means of providing integrated services digital network (ISDN) basic access by satellite to locations which are not near the desired ISDN switch. Satellite access is provided by the ISDN satellite terminal (ISAT). The ISAT transmit and receives the ISDN basic data rate of 144 Kb/s (2B+D) plus the maintenance and service channel of 16 Kb/s (totaling 160 Kb/s) anywhere within satellite coverage, including overseas. System implementation is described.<>
