Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus for estimating an increment in the number of packets arriving at a transmission queue of each terminal and allocating resources to terminals based on the increment in a Demand Assignment Multiple Access (DAMA) satellite communication system, and a method thereof. The method, includes the steps of: a) comparing a summation of requested time slot quantities of terminals with a total number of available time slots; and b) allocating the time slots as much as the requested time slot quantity to each terminal and allocating remaining time slots additionally in proportion to an estimated increase in the number of packets arriving at a transmission queue of each terminal. The apparatus can raise efficiency of resources allocation in DAMA communications and reduce the packet transmission time in a terminal transmission queue.

Abstract:
A lateral PNP transistor having either of the collector or the emitter diffusion layers layered with an n.sup.+ type diffusion layer, is shown. The added layer serves to increase the static electricity withstand stress along a transistor discharging path. A low withstand stress contributes to transistor damage at high breakdown voltages. When an n.sup.+ diffusion layer is formed within a diffusion layer in a lateral PNP transistor the transistor behaves as a combination of two transistors, PNP and NPN, selectively configured.
