Abstract
A description and an analysis of a concept for a future satellite system for the cooperative surveillance and data link service of mobiles (e.g. aircraft, ships, and trucks) are presented. The system approach described, called Ranging and Processing Satellite (RAPSAT), is based on onboard processing and the use of crosslink communications (direct from one satellite to another) to provide data-link and cooperative surveillance functions. System architecture, multiple access, acquisition, and capacity are discussed and analyzed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
