FIELD: communication equipment.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be used in wireless communication systems. To this end, a beam pattern is generated with mutually synchronized spatially multiplexed gateway stations in a wireless communication system. Some versions of implementation are implemented with reference to satellite having feeder antenna with focused main lobe, which maintains communication with a plurality of territorially distributed internetwork terminals, e.g. one gate station on the main lobes, and a user antenna, which provides communication with user terminals by means of formed user main lobes. Internetwork terminals can transmit feeder signals weighed on the main lobe and mutually synchronized in phase, e.g. according to satellite beacons and/or ring-check beacons. Synchronization may allow satellite to receive uplink signals with phase synchronization, and the main lobe weighting may allow spatial integration of direct downlink signals to form user right main lobes.
EFFECT: technical result consists in provision of extensive reuse of bandwidth by mutual synchronized spatial multiplexing of communication along feeder channel.
