Radio broadcasting experiments planned with the OTS satellite and the CNES/TDF receiving station
Abstract
The European OTS satellite transmits on the 12 GHz band for propagation experiments. Satellite broadcasting experiments to be carried out with the Spotbeam, providing a relatively high EIRP, are also described. These experiments may provide basic data for the design of future satellite broadcasting systems. A receiving ground station has been developed by TDF and CNES for this purpose.
