Satellite communications and the geostationary orbit problem
Abstract
The problem of the effective use of the geostationary orbit by telecommunications and broadcasting satellites is considered. The properties of the geostationary orbit are considered along with the characteristics of geostationary satellite communications systems. Mutual interference between these systems is investigated, and ways to increase the capacity of the geostationary orbit are examined. Principles underlying the international regulation of geostationary-orbit use are described, including principles based on the planned allocation of orbit position and frequency band.
