A network of LEO satellites

This is the second part of a two-part series on Low Earth Orbit Satellite Communications.

In Part 1, we discussed Satellite orbits, orbital mechanics, satellite coverage footprints on Earth and the analysis of the communications link between the Satellite and the Ground station.

In Part 2, we will continue this topic:

  • Working out some examples of communications link analysis,
  • Discussing vector modulation, a technique that maximizes data rates and minimizes Bit Error Rates (BER),
  • Discussing current LEO satellite Systems,
  • Looking at future LEO Satellite systems and cell phone communication directly with LEO satellites,
  • Discussing the trade-offs of currently proposed higher frequency LEO Satellite constellations.

Howard Hausman

Biography:

Howard Hausman received his MSEE degree from Polytechnic University/Tandon School of Engineering, NYU where he was an Adjunct Professor. He is currently President/CEO of RF Microwave Consulting Services and an Adjunct Professor at Hofstra University and an Adjunct Associated Professor at NYIT.

Formerly Mr. Hausman was CTO and VP of Engineering, before being appointed President/CEO of MITEQ Inc., a world renown microwave engineering company with approximately 500 employees. He has designed hardware, wrote papers and lectured on microwave systems and components for Satellite Communications, Space Systems, Radar and Reconnaissance systems.

Howard Hausman is a recipient of an NYU Distinguished Alumni Award, the IEEE LI Alex Gruenwald Award “For outstanding contributions to enhance the knowledge of the IEEE LI Section members”, and a NASA Award for work on the Mars Landing System.

Mr. Hausman is currently the Chairman of the IEEE LI Communications Society and was awarded a patent “Measuring Satellite Linearity from Earth Using A Low Duty Cycle Pulsed Microwave Signal”. He also authored a textbook “Microwave Power Amplifier Design with MMIC Modules” published by Artech House.
