| Summary: | <p>This paper will examine the initial system analysis and
system level design for a wideband crosslink between two
geostationary satellites. The vehicles will be similar to the
Hughes Aircraft Company built IntelSat VI-A in basic
configuration for the purposes of this study. The wideband
crosslink will carry channelized digital cormnunications to
include television signals and duplex voice signals.</p>
<p>The paper itself will follow the rigorous format for systems
engineering and analysis laid out by Blanchard and Fabrycky
[Blanchard]. The study will begin with a Statement of the
Problem and Definition of Need; a set of system requirements will
bound the project; and the process will follow through
preliminary design and tradeoff analysis.</p> === Master of Science |
