Pulse-address multiple access

What is this site? It is generaly simplier version of wikipedia. You will find there selected articles. Enjoy!

This article is about the channel access method. For other uses, see Pama (disambiguation).

In telecommunications, pulse-address multiple access (PAMA) is a channel access method that enables the ability of a communication satellite to receive signals from several Earth terminals simultaneously and to amplify, translate, and relay the signals back to Earth, based on the addressing of each station by an assignment of a unique combination of time and frequency slots.

This ability may be restricted by allowing only some of the terminals access to the satellite at any given time.
