ABSTRACT:
A satellite communications system includes hub satellite which are equipped to communicate with at least three other satellites. The hub satellites include crosslink interfaces for each of the other satellites with which it may communicate and a switching system for routing those communications between interfaces. A system of a given number of satellites may include several hubs and may be configured in a way which permits any satellite within the system to communicate with a hub either directly or after transiting one or more intervening satellites. Systems which include fewer hubs may require communication with more than one intervening satellite before a hub is reached.
