One of the widely used satellite channel access protocols is demand assigned multiple access (DAMA). This technique matches user demands to available satellite capacity. Satellite channels are grouped together as a bulk asset, and DAMA assigns users variable time slots matching user information transmission requirements. While user notices no change in channel quality, the result is a dramatic increase of up to x4 in communications capacity, number of supported users and networks. 7, record 1, English, - demand%2Dassignment%20multiple%20access
