Description
Understanding Radio Wave Propagation and Channel Modeling for Earth-Space Systems is crucial for designing effective earth-space systems. This comprehensive guide covers the latest research advances in channel modeling and characterization, focusing on satellite systems and propagation phenomena. The book explores the state of the art in fixed multiple-antennas and mobile satellite systems, as well as techniques to mitigate fade and optimize performance. It examines various frequencies, from VHF to W band, and discusses optical free-space communications. Recent research advances in space-time tropospheric propagation fields and optical satellite communication channel models are also presented. This book provides a detailed analysis of radio wave propagation effects on satellite navigation systems, as well as the corresponding models. It is an essential resource for professionals and researchers working in the field of earth-space systems.
