This is a very reader-friendly book covering a broad spectrum of satellite principles, and their associated technologies. The book is divided into 18 chapters, starting with introductory comments on satellite history and ending with a chapter on interference with their operation (both electronic and physical). Many of the terms and symbols used throughout are defined in the text itself, others are explained in the two glossaries appended to the book. Sketches and figures are used to make the presentation more lucid and concise. The book includes precise coverage of: various orbits and the services they provide; international launch vehicles and launch sites; phased array antennas for satellite network applications; mobile satellite services from land vehicles, aircraft, and ships; low orbit satellites for telecommunication and position determination applications; international frequency allocations for satellite control, playload management, and status; geometric relationships between satellite and Earth stations used in interference analysis, orbit determination, and location; the hostile environments in which satellites operate and cope; and much more.
