Satellite communication
An undeniably rich and thorough guide to satellite communication engineering, Satellite Communication Engineering, Second Edition presents the fundamentals of information communications systems in a simple and succinct way. This book considers both the engineering aspects of satellite systems as well as the practical issues in the broad field of information transmission. Implementing concepts developed on an intuitive, physical basis and utilizing a combination of applications and performance curves, this book starts off with a progressive foundation in satellite technology, and then moves on to more complex concepts with ease.

What’s New in the Second Edition:

The second edition covers satellite and Earth station design; global positioning systems; antenna tracking; links and communications systems; error detection and correction; data security; regulations and procedures for system modeling; integration; testing; and reliability and performance evaluation.

Provides readers with the systems building blocks of satellite transponders and Earth stations, as well as the systems engineering design procedure

Includes the tools needed to calculate basic orbit characteristics such as period, dwell time, coverage area, propagation losses; antenna system features such as size, beamwidth, aperture-frequency product, gain, tracking control; and system requirements such as power, availability, reliability, and performance

Presents problem sets and starred sections containing basic mathematical development

Details recent developments enabling digital information transmission and delivery via satellite

Satellite Communication Engineering, Second Edition

serves as a textbook for students and a resource for space agencies and relevant industries.
