Thoroughly updated and expanded, this third edition boasts a wealth of new material, including added coverage of systems engineering as applied to satellite communications, clear explanations of all aspects of building and using a satellite systems, and discussions on digital communications and processing in modern satellite networks. The new edition also examines critical success factors and how to avoid the pitfalls in selecting satellite and ground resources. The book covers all the fundamentals of satellites, ground control systems, and earth stations, considering the design and operation of each major segment. You gain a practical understanding of the basic construction and usage of commercial satellite networks-how parts of a satellite system function, how various components interact, which role each component plays, and which factors are the most critical to success. Moreover, the book explores the economic, legal, and management issues involved in running the business of satellite communications.Publisher abstract.Artech House space applications series.Artech House telecommunications library.Satellite communicationArtificial satellites in telecommunicationElectronic books.Artificial satellites in telecommunication.621.382/5Elbert Bruce R.728580CaBNVSLCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910455445003321Introduction to satellite communication2208376UNINA
