This paper presents, in Section 1, a new approach to realisingco-ordination channels for digital satellite news gathering(DSNG).The key element of the approach to the co-ordination channels is adirect-sequence spread-spectrum processing of the data to betransited which allows for the realization of an in-band transmissionof the co-ordination channel signals overlaying the DSNG mainchannel, the part of the system which is responsible for thetransmission of the audio/video signal on a point-to-point basis.
