Satellite technology is a popular field in today’s world. It seems quite familiar to many of us regardless of our professional and academic backgrounds. This technology is no longer a prerogative of particular countries and is not confined to the research labs of only big research organizations and academic institutes. Presently, satellite technology is taught as one of the primary courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Most of the literature on satellite technology encompasses the applications of satellites in communication systems only. The information about other aspects of satellite technology is usually overlooked, which include its applications in weather forecasting, remote sensing, scientific research, navigational applications, and military uses. This book, Introduction to Satellite Technology and Its Applications, is a comprehensive book on the topic of contemporary satellite technologies and their applications. Offering a widespread overview of applications, from military uses and remote sensing to scientific and navigational applications, the book also presents inclusive information on different satellite types of space launch vehicles. There are eight chapters in the book. Each chapter offers a thorough introduction of a particular topic related to satellite technology. Chapter 1 introduces the readers to the fundamentals of satellites and their types. Chapter 2 focuses on the discussion of different types of satellites and their basic classifications. Different types of orbits are also discussed in the chapter. Communication systems based on low earth orbit satellites (LEOS) are an exciting and fascinating endeavor in reorganizing the services that the global communication network provides. Chapter 3 offers key information regarding LEOS systems and their applications. Chapter 4 describes the design of an effective and economlow-latencytency MEO constellation by the usage of high-power dirigible Ka-band spot beams. Chapter 5 illustrates the fundamentals of geosynchronous satellites. The past few years have observed an incredible rise in curiosity in the use of cube-satellites (CubeSats) among the space community comprising space agencies, the industry as well as academia. Chapter 6 offers a thorough overview of cube-satellite propulsion technologies. A miniaturized satellite, small satellite, or simply small-sat is a satellite having a low size and mass, generally less than 500 kg. Chapter 7 provides an overview of different small satellites and their applications. Finally, Chapter 8 contains information about future trends in satellite technology and satellite communication systems. The book can serve as an ideal guide for researchers and professionals in the field of satellite technology and space sciences. Moreover, engineering students from multidisciplinary fields can also benefit from the book.
