A comparison between frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) and code-division multiple access (CDMA) when both methods operate in the mobile satellite communication environment is presented. The mobile satellites under consideration use multiple beams or scan beam antennas and employ frequency reuse of the allocated L-band frequency spectrum. Because CDMA can better absorb Doppler and multipath effects and permits higher rate coding, it appears in general, with practical considerations set aside, to be the more capable system. >
