Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Orbits and related issues -- 3. Baseband signals and quality of service -- 4. Digital communications techniques -- 5. Uplink, downlink and overall link performance; intersatellite links -- 6. Multiple access -- 7. Satellite networks -- 8. Earth stations -- 9. The communication payload -- 10. The platform -- 11. Satellite installation and launch vehicles -- 12. The space environment -- 13. Reliability of satellite communications systems.
Summary: "Building on the success of previous editions, Satellite Communications Systems, Fifth Edition covers the entire field of satellite communications engineering from orbital mechanics to satellite design and launch, configuration and installation of earth stations, including the implementation of communications links and the set-up of the satellite network. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of satellite communications systems engineering and discusses the technological applications. It demonstrates how system components interact and details the relationship between the system and its environment. The authors discuss the systems aspects such as techniques enabling equipment and system dimensioning and state of the art technology for satellite platforms, payloads and earth stations."--Jacket.
