Civil maritime satellite communication systems
Abstract
Saturation problems in the existing communication systems of the commercial shipping industry require the introduction of new approaches. Investigations have been conducted concerning the use of maritime satellite communication systems. For the start of full capacity operations two systems could be available in 1977. Questions of satellite and ship terminal design are discussed along with details regarding the electronic equipment involved and the provision of shore stations by European administrations.
