Issues in CDMA applications for mobile LEO satellite communications

A review of several projects of CDMA based mobile LEO satellite communication system is given to demonstrate the ideas in practice. The contrast of the differences between terrestrial and satellite mobile communications based on CDMA will be presented with special emphasis on intercell versus interspot interference in land and multiple beam interference in satellite systems, respectively.

The reliability of Doppler estimation for different elevation angles as a function of the ratio of the pilot carrier to the overall signal power will be given.
