International Conference on Satellite Communication Systems Technology, London, England, April 7-10, 1975, Proceedings
Abstract
Antenna measurement techniques at 11 GHz are considered along with earth-to-space links for broadcasting satellites, a fast acquisition coherent PSK demodulator incorporating passive narrow-band filters operable in a quenching mode, digital control of a geostationary satellite using a double gimballed momentum wheel, and the attitude and orbit control system of the orbital test satellite. Attention is also given to an integrated random access channel for telex and channel assignment in a maritime satellite system, a simple multimode tracking system for microwave aerials, and the statistical evaluation of rain fades and fade durations at 11 GHz in the European region. Individual items are announced in this issue.
