Abstract: | A nation-wide data communications service is being placed in service by a major telecommunications carrier. This service will rely on a satellite network being provided and installed by Harris Satellite Communications Corporation. The network supports information data rates from 56 kb/s to 2·048 Mb/s. This data communications network has been architectured to include a number of innovative monitor and control functions, up-link power control, modular equipment shelter design and a modular antenna/feed subsystem. This paper will detail this application. |
