The return channels are 3 kBaud Slotted Aloha for MES requests, call acknowledgements and registration
traffic, TDMA for MES response and 4 kBaud OQPSK for MES voice and low speed data.
WAVECOM decodes SAT-M 2.4 kbps fax and data. The decoder will automatically adjust to the modulation
type in use (BPSK or OQPSK).

SAT-MINI-M
The SAT-miniM system carries digital voice and low speed data and fax. The forward direction channels
from land earth stations (LES or CES) to mobile earth stations (SES or MES) are 6 kBaud for NCS TDM,
2.8 kBaud for LES voice, low speed data and fax.

In idle mode all mobile stations listen to the NCS (Network Control Station) common TDM channel, which
carries signaling information. When a mobile station identifies its id in a signaling frame it will act on the
commands received from the NCS and in case of a channel assignment message being received tune to
the assigned transmit-receive frequency pair.
The return channel is a 2.8 kBaud TDMA 3 kBaud for all service types.
WAVECOM decodes SAT-M 2.4 kbps fax and data. The decoder will automatically adjust to the modulation

SI-ARQ
SI-ARQ is a simplex system similar to for example SITOR. SI-ARQ therefore also sounds similar to the
well-known SITOR system. Because data and pause blocks are longer in duration, the perception of a low-
er baud rate is created.
