Systems, Techniques and Technology Fifth Edition by Gerard Maral

Satellite Communications Systems: Systems, Techniques and Technology | Publisher: Wiley 2010-02-15 | 742 Pages | ISBN: 0470714581 | PDF | 13 MB

New and updated edition of this authoritative and comprehensive reference to the field of satellite communications engineering.

Building on the success of previous editions, Satellite Communications Systems, Fifth Edition covers the entire field of satellite communications engineering from orbital mechanics to satellite design and launch, configuration and installation of earth stations, including the implementation of communications links and the set-up of the satellite network. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of satellite communications systems engineering and discusses the technological applications. It demonstrates how system components interact and details the relationship between the system and its environment. The authors discuss the systems aspects such as techniques enabling equipment and system dimensioning and state of the art technology for satellite platforms, payloads and earth stations.

New features and updates for the fifth edition include:

* More information on techniques allowing service provision of multimedia content
* Extra material on techniques for broadcasting, including recent standards DVB-RCS and DVB-S2 (Digital Video Broadcasting -Return Channel Satellite and -Satellite Version 2)
* Updates on onboard processing

By offering a detailed and practical overview, Satellite Communications Systems continues to be an authoritative text for advanced students, engineers and designers throughout the field of satellite communications and engineering.
Satellite communications refers to the utilisation of geostationary orbiting satellites to relay the transmission received from one earth station to one or more earth stations. They are the outcome of research in the area of communications whose objective is to achieve ever-increasing ranges and capacities with the lowest possible costs.
Since publication of the first edition, satellite communications systems have become increasingly sophisticated. This revised, updated and extended fourth edition covers the entire field of satellite communications engineering from the techniques of orbital mechanics and radio wave propagation to the design of communication links and earth stations.
* Features an improved presentation of satellite applications with regards to services
* Discusses the most recent developments in this evolving field, including MPEG2, concatenated coding, digital TV and examples of transmission of digital telephony
* Practical approach and extensive illustrations are highly valued by student audience
* A single source, comprehensive and thorough reference covering the entire field of satellite communications engineering.
New features include:
* An updated section on the evolution of satellite communications and the deployment of services
* Inclusion of MPEG2, concatenated coding and coded modulation
* Discusses examples for the transmission of digital telephony, digital TV and date, introduction of DVB-s (Digital Video Broadcasting by satellite) standard
* Complete re-organisation of Chapters 5 and 6 resulting in a unique new Chapter 5 entitled 'Service Oriented Satellite Networks'
* Recent developments in deployableantennas
* Lithium batteries
* New launchers such as Atlas 3 and 4
A leading edge resource for advanced students, engineers and designers in the field of satellite and mobile radio communications and also communication engineers.
