The various properties of geostationary and low Earth orbiting satellites are discussed. Main emphasis is given to satellite interconnection techniques, due to the importance of Interorbit and Intersatellite Links (IOL and ISL) in a global and efficient Earth observation satellite system. Conventional microwave as well as modern optical techniques are possible candidates for these links. In this frame, a High Power Diode Transmitter (HPDT) is presented. As an outlook to a future worldwide communication scenario the integration of Earth observation satellites in an information satellite (Infosat) system is raised.
