Satellite Communications

 

Description:
Satellite Communications is experiencing continued growth as the demand for global long distance connectivity increases. High data rate earth stations are used for transmitting video, data, and voice; familiar applications include point-of-transaction credit verification at Gas station pumps and retail stores.

Trends include the use of higher data rates, a move to higher transmitter powers, and increasing emphasis on cost.

Segments include C Band high capacity earth stations, C Band VSAT, Ku Band VSAT, and Ku Band mobile. Agilent Technologies provides C and Ku Band transceiver components.

Systems that are under development or that have been proposed include:

Globalstar
Teledesic
Iridium
American Mobile Satellite Corp.
Spaceway
Odyssey
