Surveys key advances in commercial satellite communicationsand what might be the implications and/or opportunities forend-users and service providers in utilizing the latestfast-evolving innovations in this field
This book explores the evolving technical options andopportunities of satellite networks. Designed to be aself-contained reference, the book includes background technicalmaterial in an introductory chapter that will serve as a primer tosatellite communications. The text discusses advances inmodulation techniques, such as DBV-S2 extensions (DVS-S2X);spotbeam-based geosynchronous and medium earth orbit HighThroughput Satellite (HTS) technologies and Internet applications;enhanced mobility services with aeronautical and maritimeapplications; Machine to Machine (M2M) satellite applications;emerging ultra HD technologies; and electric propulsion. Theauthor surveys the latest innovations and service strategies and the resulting implications, which involves:
* Discussing advances in modulation techniques and HTS spotbeamtechnologies
* Surveying emerging high speed aeronautical mobility servicesand maritime and other terrestrial mobility services
* Assessing M2M (machine-to-machine) applications, emerging UltraHD video technologies and new space technology
Satellite communication is an integral part of the larger fieldsof commercial, television/media, government, and militarycommunications, because of its multicast/broadcast capabilities,mobility, reliability, and global reach. High ThroughputSatellites) are expected to revolutionize the field during thisdecade, providing very high speed, yet cost-effective, Internetaccess and connectivity anywhere in the world, in rural areas, inthe air, and at sea. M2M connectivity, enabled by satellitecommunications, connects trucks on transcontinental trips, aircraftin real-time-telemetry aggregation, and mercantile ships.
A comprehensive analysis of the new advances in satellitecommunications, Innovations in Satellite CommunicationsTechnology is a reference for telecommunications andsatellite providers and end-users, technology investors, logisticprofessionals, and more.
