What it is about

You will learn the telecommunications fundamentals of satellite communications: from orbits and link budgets to channel models and multiple access, capacity calculation and payload aspects. By the end you will be able to technically assess existing and planned satellite systems and solve typical computation tasks of satellite communications.

What you will be able to do

  • Understand and apply the telecommunications fundamentals of satellite communications
  • Analyze orbits, geometry and constellations
  • Compute link budget and fading/channel models
  • Assess multiple access and multiplexing procedures
  • Determine capacity and dimension systems
  • Understand payload- and radio resource management aspects
  • Survey network and transport protocols in satellite systems
  • Classify existing and planned satellite systems
