The Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS), as a means of providing great advantages to satellite communication, has appealed many researchers’ interests. It uses spread spectrum technique for communication in its multiple access links. In this paper, we study the various parameters that may affect the capacity of TDRSS. The influence of code design and power control on the capacity of such system is measured. Moreover, a novel multi-user detection technique is proposed which is based on the observation of a 2-symbol-wide time period. The performance of the proposed scheme against viterbi algorithm for mobile nodes has been explored via simulation. Simulation results show effectiveness of the viterbi algorithm as well as the proposed algorithm.
