    Description:  Since their introduction in the mid-1960s, satellite communications have grown from a futuristic experiment into an integral part of today's "wired world." Satellite communications are at the core of a global, automatically switched telephony network. Assembled by the International Telecommunication Union--the international organization that sets the standards for this rapidly growing industry--the Handbook on Satellite Communications, Third Edition brings together basic facts about satellite communications as related to the fixed-satellite service (FSS). It covers the main principles, technologies, and operation of equipment in a tutorial form.

    Updated to include the latest technologies and information, the Third Edition provides both the standards and technical information needed to implement and interact with satellite communication systems, including:
    * The components and basic characteristics of a satellite communication system
    * Regulatory considerations and system planning
    * SDH and ATM satellite transmissions
    * Analog and digital baseband signal processing and multiplexing
    * Carrier modulation techniques
    * Geostationary and non-geostationary systems
    * Interconnection of satellite and terrestrial networks
    * LEOS satellite networks and other recent developments
