Provides an invaluable, detailed and up-to-date coverage of
atmospheric effects and their impact on satellite communications
systems design and performance.

Significant progress has been made in the last decade in the
understanding and modelling of propagation effects on radio wave
propagation in the bands utilized for satellite communications.
This book provides a comprehensive description and analysis of all
atmospheric effects of concern for today's satellite systems, and
the tools necessary to design the links and to evaluate system
performance.

This book will serve as an excellent reference to
communications engineers, wireless network and system engineers,
system designers and graduate students in satellite communications
and related areas.

Key features:

*Provides the state of the art in communications satellite link
design and performance from the practicing engineer perspective -
concise descriptions, specific procedures and comprehensive
solutions
*Contains the calculations and tools necessary for evaluating
system performance
*Provides a complete evaluation of atmospheric effects,
modelling and prediction
*Focuses on the satellite free-space link as the primary element
in the design and performance for satellite communications, and
recognizes the importance of free-space considerations such as
atmospheric effects, frequency of operation and adaptive mitigation
techniques
