Communication system for a ship terminal for Marisat
Abstract
The communications equipment of a maritime satellite ship terminal which was recently designed for use in the Marisat system is described. Both the overall configuration of the equipment and the individual units are outlined. A particular feature is the use of synthesizers capable of covering 339 channels for both telex/access and voice. Although designed to meet all Marisat system requirements, the equipment should be readily adaptable to a second generation satellite system.
