  • Abstract
    In satellite communications, multiple access using TDMA and switchable spot beams might require some storage at the satellite. This need for storage depends on the manner of switching. It is shown that two spot beams are necessary and sufficient to achieve multiple access without storage. A switching algorithm is given to establish this result.
