Payload in end-to-end communications system."This book is a unique combination of practical payload systems engineering and communications theory and applications. Payload systems engineering itself is a complex endeavor that people only learn on the job over many years' time, and this book hopes to ease their learning path. There are detailed books on how to design the various kinds of units, e.g., antennas, of a payload but seemingly no books focusing on unit performance at a level appropriate for systems engineering.Potential satellite owners, few of whom have worked in the satellite field, need help to understand how to get what they want from the manufacturer.The satellite bus, particular satellites, and particular and general satellite communications systems have been written about in several books, but the payload has received typically a few pages in all these books"--Provided by publisher.Artificial satellites in telecommunicationArtificial satellitesElectronic equipmentArtificial satellitesRadio antennasHigh altitude platform systems (Telecommunication)Digital communicationsArtificial satellites in telecommunication.Artificial satellitesElectronic equipment.Artificial satellitesRadio antennas.High altitude platform systems (Telecommunication)Digital communications.621.3841/56SCI067000bisacshBraun T.

This book challenges the argument that the United States is a Christian nation, and that the American founding and the American Constitution can be linked to a Christian understanding of the state and society. Vincent Rougeau argues that the United States has become an economic empire of consumer citizens, led by elites who seek to secure American political and economic dominance around the world.ChristianityUnited StatesForecastingChristian sociologyUnited StatesMoral conditionsChristianityForecasting.Christian sociology.261.80973Rougeau Vincent D.1963-1859382MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910972952003321Christians in the American empire4463121UNINA
