This book presents the principal structure of space systems, functionality, media and applications for modern remote sensing, transmission systems, meteorological antennas, propagation meteorological observation and transferring weather data from satellite to the ground infrastructures and users. The book starts with a short background to the development of Radio and Space systems including overview, concepts and applications of satellite communications in function of transfer meteorological observation data and images. It goes on to discuss the fundamental principles of the space platforms and orbital parameters, lows of satellite motions, new types of launching systems, satellite orbits and geometric relations, spacecraft configuration, payload structure, type of onboard antenna systems, satellite orbits and components of satellite bus. The author also provides comprehensive coverage of baseband and transmission systems, fundamentals of atmospheric electromagnetic radiation, satellite meteorological parameters and instruments, and research and applications in antenna systems and propagation. This is a companion book of Global Satellite Meteorological Observation Applications (Springer).
Prof. Stoj¿e Dimov Il¿ev is Chair of Space Science Centre (SSC) for Research and Postgraduate Studies in Space CNS for Maritime, Land and Aeronautical Applications, Global Satellite Augmentation Systems (GSAS), GNSS Systems, Satellite Tracking Systems, Mobile Broadcasting and Meteorological Observation Systems at Durban University of Technology (DUT), Durban, South Africa. He studies both Maritime radio engineering and Nautical science at Montenegro University in Kotor, Maritime electronics and communications at Rijeka University in Croatia, Postgraduate satellite engineering at Skopie University in Macedonia and Belgrade University in Serbia. Il¿ev holds Bachelor (BSc), Master in Electrical Engineering (MSc) and Doctor of Science (PhD) degrees. He also holds the certificates for Radio operator 1st class (Morse), for GMDSS 1st class Radio Electronic Operator and Maintainer and for Master Mariner without limitations. Since 1969, Il¿ev worked onboard merchant ships, in Sate llite Earth Station, at Coast Radio Station, shipping company, Nautical School and at Maritime Faculty. Since 2000, he worked at IS Marine Radio and CNS Systems companies on research and projects relating to modern Communication, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS) for maritime, land and aeronautical applications. He has written five books on CNS engineering and satellite systems for mobile applications and he has many projects and inventions in this field including DVB-RCS standards and Stratospheric Platforms.
