Abstract
Provided is a method of establishing an uplink in a mobile satellite communication system, the method including: receiving a random uplink access signal from terminals included in a coverage of a satellite beam; estimating a location of each of the terminals; calculating an uplink transmission point in time when each of the terminals transmits an uplink signal, based on the estimated location of each of the terminals; transmitting, to each of the terminals, the calculated uplink transmission point in time; and receiving the uplink signal from each of the terminals at the calculated uplink transmission point in time.
