Interoperability of American, European and Japanese data relay satellite (DRS) networks is discussed, emphasizing the role of the Columbus space station. Six interoperability options, ranging from independently designed systems with S-band compatibility to systems which share frequencies and are fully coordinated, are presented. Antenna designs to prevent the LEO spacecraft body blocking the link between the LEO spacecraft antenna and the DRS location, are suggested.
