Description

Book Synopsis
Mobile satellite services are set to change with the imminent launch of satellite personal communication services (S-PCS), through the use of non-geostationary satellites. This new generation of satellites will be placed in low earth orbit or medium earth orbit, hence, introducing new satellite design concepts.

Trade Review
"...presents a very well-organized summary of satellite-based communications systems...this self-contained book can easily be used as a textbook..." (IEEE Communications Magazine, May 2002)
