| Description | The use of the 18 and 30 GHz bands for fixed service satellite communications is examined. Primary objectives were to determine if satellite communication systems using this allocation (27.5 to 30.0 GHz uplink; 17.7 to 20.2 GHz downlink) can be cost competitive with alternate means of communication, and to determine what technological developments would be required to make these systems competitive. To meet these objectives, the cost and performance to be expected of 18 and 30 GHz hardware in the 1985 to 1990 era was assessed, selected trunking and direct to user concepts were optimized, and the cost of these systems was estimated. Finally, the technology developments required to make the most promising of the concepts competitive were identified. |
