Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A communication system for low orbit, the system comprising:
a transceiver module;
a rearrangeable switch network, configured for signal source permutation, coupled to the transceiver module;
a power distribution network coupled to the rearrangeable switch network, the power distribution network comprising:
a plurality of power amplifiers for parallel amplification and power sharing among multiple output ports;
a preamplification processing stage input network (INET) for transforming signals to prepare for amplification; and
a post amplification stage output network (ONET) for recombining signals after amplification; and

a plurality of Beam Steering Phase Array (“B SPA”) antennas, each coupled to the power distribution network and dynamically controllable to generate beams according to a power regulation requirement for a set of satellites.
