Sparse code multiple access (SCMA) is a new nonorthogonal multiple access scheme, which effectively exploits the constellation shaping gain of multi-dimensional codebook. In this paper, we propose a new SCMA architecture of uplink satellite communication system. At the transmitter, we group the users and design a practical spherical codebook. At the receiver, a low-complexity multi-user detection algorithm, namely logarithm domain message passing algorithm (Log-MPA) is implemented. The results show that the reliability of the proposed codebook outperforms the existing SCMA codebook schemes in both AWGN and Rayleigh channels.
