Geostationary satellites in networks of the future
Article Abstract:
Satellite communications continues to be the a primary means for instantly providing most of users worldwide with an infrastructure for communications, which is expected to undergo fundamental changes through the year 2003. Future communications networks are expected to be a cross between fiber-optic and satellite technology, with the two systems complementing each other with their respective functions. Future hybrid communications networks are expected to be both seamless and without borders, with wide and cost-effective capabilities for distribution due to the networks' broad-reach capacity.

Ku-band geo synchronous satellite locations
Article Abstract:
The table and illustration list and show locations of commercial Ku-band satellites used for fixed satellite services such as TV and international voice/data functions. The list is restricted to satellites in use or production; thus, future satellites filed with the International Telecommunications Union or Federal Communications Commission are excluded. Both Fixed and Broadcasting Satellite Services are shown in the list, as well as a few Ku-band feeder links.
