SATELLITE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM TRANSMITTING FREQUENCY HOPPED SIGNALS WITH APLURALITY OF GATEWAYS AND NON PROCESSING SATELLITES

摘要

A method and apparatus for processing a signal is present. Information is carried in a frequency hopping signal. The frequency hopping signal is sent to a gateway in a communications network through a satellite. The frequency hopping signal is unprocessed by the satellite to identify the information in the frequency hopping signal.
