HANDBK OF SATELLITE APPLICATIO

From the reviews:
"This guide presents specific and detailed information about the four satellite applications of today: telecommunications, remote sensing and earth observation, navigation, and meteorological monitoring. The two-volume book set is very well organized into self-contained sections with highly descriptive titles. ... I recommend this handbook to design engineers, students, teachers, and anyone who needs an updated source of information about the applications and technologies of today's satellite systems."
