Provides an invaluable, detailed and up-to-date coverage ofatmospheric effects and their impact on satellite communicationssystems design and performance.
Significant progress has been made in the last decade in theunderstanding and modelling of propagation effects on radio wavepropagation in the bands utilized for satellite communications.This book provides a comprehensive description and analysis of allatmospheric effects of concern for today's satellite systems,and the tools necessary to design the links and to evaluate systemperformance.
This book will serve as an excellent reference to communicationsengineers, wireless network and system engineers, system designersand graduate students in satellite communications and relatedareas.
Key features:
* Provides the state of the art in communications satellite linkdesign and performance from the practicing engineer perspective- concise descriptions, specific procedures and comprehensivesolutions
* Contains the calculations and tools necessary for evaluatingsystem performance
* Provides a complete evaluation of atmospheric effects,modelling and prediction
* Focuses on the satellite free-space link as the primary elementin the design and performance for satellite communications, andrecognizes the importance of free-space considerations such asatmospheric effects, frequency of operation and adaptive mitigationtechniques
* a solutions manual is available directly from the author (lippolit@gwu.edu)
