AIDS FOR THE GROSS DESIGN OF SATELLITE COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

摘要

This paper has been compiled as a computational aid for designers of communication systems employing earth satellites as active relays. It is intended to be of practical utility; there is no suggestion that the theory of communications or satellites is probed in depth or detail. The fundamental intent underlying this work has been to assimilate in one place most of the nomograms and graphs normally employed in per-forming the gross design or analysis of a communication system, with emphasis placed on the parametric ranges pertinent to communication satellites.
