This book explores the evolving technical options and opportunities of satellite networks. Designed to be a self-contained reference, the book includes background technical material in an introductory chapter that will serve as a primer to satellite communications. The text discusses advances in modulation techniques, such as DBV-S2 extensions (DVS-S2X); spotbeam-based geosynchronous and medium earth orbit High Throughput Satellite (HTS) technologies and Internet applications; enhanced mobility services with aeronautical and maritime applications; Machine to Machine (M2M) satellite applications; emerging ultra HD technologies; and electric propulsion. The author surveys the latest innovations and service strategies and the resulting implications, which involves:
- Discussing advances in modulation techniques and HTS spotbeam technologies
- Surveying emerging high speed aeronautical mobility services and maritime and other terrestrial mobility services
- Assessing M2M (machine-to-machine) applications, emerging Ultra HD video technologies and new space technology
