Abstract: A multi-beam transmit/receive device comprises a Circular Polarization Frequency Selective Surface (CPFSS) unit, a transmit (Tx) flat array antenna assembly with multi-bean flat array antenna and a receive (Rx) flat array antenna assembly with multi-bean flat array antenna. The Tx multi-beam antenna is poisoned with respect to the CPFSS unit so that its transmission is configured to be reflected by the CPFSS unit to a reflector and to be reflected by the reflector in a defined direction and the Rx multi-beam antenna is poisoned with respect to the CPFSS unit so that transmission that hits the reflector from the defined direction and passes through the CPFSS unit focuses on the Rx multi-beam antenna.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for adaptively controlling transmission rate between first and second terminals. The system comprising a controller and a transmit unit. The controller comprising a computing unit, a storage unit and a memory unit. The transmit unit is to transmit signals over a communication link from the first terminal to the second terminal and the computing unit is adapted to receive indication of a signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) of transmission in the communication link and to execute program stored in the memory unit to change the transmission rate of the transmit unit in response to changes in the SNR.
