1. A method, comprising:
- determining a demand (DS) for a resource by users of a satellite system;
determining a demand (DT) for said resource by users of a terrestrial system; and
allocating said resource between said satellite system and said terrestrial system based on a ratio of DS to DT.

Abstract
There is provided a method for improving an allocation of resources, i.e., frequency and power, to terrestrial services and satellite services that use a same frequency band. The method includes determining a demand (DS) for a resource by users of a satellite system, determining a demand (DT) for the resource by users of a terrestrial system, and allocating the resource between the satellite system and the terrestrial system based on a ratio of DS to DT.

17. A method, comprising:
-
determining a ratio where;
NS=a number of users of a satellite system, PS=power per user of said satellite system, NT=a number of users of a terrestrial system, and PT=power per user of said terrestrial system; and
allocating radio frequency (RF) power between said satellite system and said terrestrial system based on said ratio. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A method, comprising:
-
determining a number of users of a terrestrial system located in a beam of a satellite and using a frequency band in said beam; and
denying said satellite use of said frequency band in said beam if said number of users is greater than a threshold number. - View Dependent Claims (32)
