NOTAS: | "This updated and extended new edition has been compiled from the course material of the highly succeful IEE Vacation School of the same name, now in its 15th year. The vacation school was designed to give a broad introduction to the subject of satellite communications and provide the background knowledge and tools of the trade for those entering the field. The 3rd edition of the book continues this theme and up-to-date information on mobile and personal satellite constellations, navigation and positioning, military and small satellite systems has been added, as well as a look to future Ka-band multimedia systems. We also included updated ITU information and sections on history, organisation and the satellite business." |
