Oh, that's interesting.

 >> the satellite broadcasts the downlink radio frame to all the user 
terminals in a group and they each retrieve their respective data from 
the downlink radio frame

I thought the satellite beamformer only sends data frames to the 
appropriate UT. It looks like the given satellite covers the whole cell 
at one TX channel.
Otherwise, it would be too complex, I guess.
