Certain specialized-services payload activities are mentioned as being significant. These include: the five spot beam available on the Ku-band, four of which can be used simultaneously; transponder flexibility; the mobile 3.5 meter Ku-band terminals; and the increasing use of very small aperture terminals. The enhancement and flexibility of satellites, the interconnection of area networks and the development of multi-point videoconferencing are cited as being the most promising trends in satellite communication development.
