A Practical Approach To Antenna Technology For Communication Satellites
This authoritative resource discusses antenna technology for communication satellites, addressing both the space and user segments. The book provides a system view of antenna applications, a description of various antenna technologies, and guidance on methodologies for antenna evaluation.
Communication Satellite Antennas begins with an overview of the parameters that characterize antennas, and goes on to cover the antenna designs, technologies, and system architectures required for communication satellite systems. Techniques to mitigate interference are covered, and the processes used in the development and characterization of antenna systems are reviewed. Discover how to:
Adhere to the system parameters used to quantify antenna performance
Understand the technologies used in wide coverage, earth coverage, narrow coverage, and array antennas
Work within standard communication satellite system architectures and orbital alternatives
Address propagation limitations and link performance
Implement reliable antenna interference mitigation techniques
Develop space segment antennas, including spot beam, multiple beam, adaptive uplink, active aperture, and point-to-point antennas
Apply user segment technologies, such as reflector antenna technology, antenna sidelobe control techniques, and adaptive interference cancellation systems
Evaluate satellite antennas and systems using rigorous methodologies
Robert Dybdal graduated from The Ohio State University and has been with The Aerospace Corporation since 1968 where he is a Distinguished Engineer. His work actively involves satellite technology development and planning, system design and testing for both the space and user segments for both military and commercial customers. In addition to working with the U.S. Air Force, Bob also provides support under contract to NATO, ICO, Thuraya, Astra, Superbird, and Optus space segment programs. His professional involvement includes IEEE and AMTA and he holds patents in instrumentation, adaptive antennas, antenna tracking, satellite transponder architectures, and microwave components.
