Abstract
Thanks to both the rapid deployment of the Internet and advances in satellite technology, the market for broadband satellite services is poised for substantial growth in the coming decade. Current communications satellite systems have generally been designed to provide either voice or data transaction (low data rate) services through small terminals, or trunking (high data rate, or broadband) services through large terminals. However, technological advances are enabling new systems that combine broadband data rates with small terminals, thereby providing more affordable "last-mile" network access to home and small business users worldwide. In particular, two types of broadband satellite systems are under development: high-power satellites deployed at tradit...
