A novel multiple access model of satellite formation flying is brought forward, which has the advantages of shared signal
bandwidth, asynchronous access etc, at the same time it overcomes the problems of difficulty of constructing the
addressing codes in the optical code division multiple access and that of hardware implementing in wavelength division
multiple access. The model makes use of delay difference between two arms of Mach-Zender interferometer (MZI) to
encode and decode at the end of transmitter and receiver respectively, that's to say when the delay difference of
receiving end is close to that of transmitting end, the received optical power would be maximum. Frequency shift keying
modulation is adopted to achieve the coherent multiplexing multiple access. Then when the micro-satellite beam is
transmitted in atmosphere condition of weak turbulence, the receiving optical field is described by the Rytov model
based on the premise of independent optical field interference, the formula of SNR and BER is deduced. The simulation
results show that given the turbulence amplitude, 1/SNR ascends along with increasing of satellite number, furthermore
the larger turbulence amplitude, the more quickly 1/SNR rises, this proves number of satellites and turbulence amplitude
are the dominating parameters which affect the system performance.
