DEEP SPACE COMMUNICATIONS
A COLLECTION OF SOME OF THE JET PROPULSION LABORATORY’S SPACE MISSIONS SELECTED TO REPRESENT THE PLANETARY COMMUNICATIONS DESIGNS FOR A PROGRESSION OF VARIOUS TYPES OF MISSIONS
The text uses a case study approach to show the communications link performance resulting from the planetary communications design developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). This is accomplished through the description of the design and performance of six representative planetary missions. These six cases illustrate progression through time of the communications system’s capabilities and performance from 1970s technology to the most recent missions. The six missions discussed in this ... Read more
Deep Space Communications:
- Provides an overview of the Deep Space Network and its capabilities
- Examines case studies to illustrate the progression of system design and performance from mission to mission and provides a broad overview of the mission systems described
- Discusses actual flight mission telecommunications performance of each system
Deep Space Communications serves as a reference for scientists and engineers interested in communications systems for deep-space telecommunications link analysis and design control.
