    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for timing transmissions in a wireless communication system. An example method can include determining, at a satellite, a maximum round-trip propagation delay associated with one or more user terminals of a plurality of user terminals, determining, based on the maximum round-trip propagation delay, a respective downlink to uplink (DL/UL) offset for each user terminal, wherein the DL/UL offset comprises a time difference between a first downlink frame at the satellite and a first corresponding uplink frame at the satellite, transmitting a first downlink frame, receiving a first uplink frame from a first user terminal associated with the maximum round-trip propagation delay during the first corresponding uplink frame at the satellite, and receiving a second uplink frame from a second user terminal associated with a round-trip propagation delay less than the maximum round-trip propagation delay during the first corresponding uplink frame at the satellite.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for synchronization of multi-user uplink transmissions. An example method can include receiving, by a user terminal, a downlink radio frame transmitted by a satellite; determining, by the user terminal, a downlink propagation delay associated with the downlink radio frame and an uplink propagation delay associated with an uplink radio frame from the user terminal to the satellite; based on the downlink propagation delay and the uplink propagation delay, determining, by the user terminal, an uplink transmission delay indicating an amount of time to delay a transmission of the uplink radio frame to the satellite so the uplink radio frame is received at the satellite at a same target time as one or more additional uplink radio frames from one or more additional user terminals; and transmitting, by the user terminal, the uplink radio frame at a time corresponding to the uplink transmission delay.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for timing half-duplex transmissions in a wireless communication system. An example method can include receiving, by a user terminal (UT), a radio frame transmitted by a satellite to a group of UTs; identifying an offset delay defined in the radio frame for scheduling transmissions between the satellite and each UT in the group of UTs, the offset delay providing non-overlapping time intervals for receive, process, and transmit operations at each UT; determining, based on the offset delay and a time when the radio frame was received by the UT, a time for transmitting an uplink radio burst to the satellite, wherein the uplink radio burst transmitted at the time is estimated to arrive at the satellite within a same radio frame interval as uplink radio bursts from other UTs; and transmitting, to the satellite, the uplink radio burst at the time.
