First Claim
Patent Images
1. A terminal for communicating with one or more remote transponders, the terminal comprising:
- means for performing wireless communication with the transponder(s) on each of two different frequencies,means for receiving or accessing data to be transmitted to the transponder(s),means for determining any first part of the data for transmission on a first of the two frequencies and any remaining, second part of the data for communication on a second of the frequencies,the performing means being adapted to;
receive, from the transponder(s) and on the first of the frequencies, information identifying the second frequency,communicate the first part, if any, to the transponder(s) using the first frequency, andcommunicate the second part, if any, to the transponder(s) using the second frequency.

Abstract
A system for communicating with one or more satellites over two frequencies, where information identifying the second frequency is transmitted over the first frequency. Usually, the most important data is transmitted over the first frequency at which communication usually is the most stable, whereas communication over the second frequency usually has a higher bandwidth.

13. A method of communicating with one or more remote transponders, the method comprising:
-
performing wireless communication with the transponder(s) on each of two different frequencies, receiving or accessing data to be transmitted to the transponder(s), determining any first part of the data for transmission on a first of the two frequencies and any remaining, second part of the data for communication on a second of the frequencies, the performing step comprising; receiving, from the transponder(s) and on the first of the frequencies, information identifying the second frequency, communicating the first part, if any, to the transponder(s) using the first frequency, communicating the second part, if any, to the transponder(s) using the second frequency. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, 24)
