RADIO STATIONS OVER OUR PLANET

Abstract

There is one field in which artificial earth satellites and space vehicles open huge prospects. This field is the increase of operational effectiveness and range of radio communications. Having taken into consideration the rapid development of rocket techniques and the increased load capacity of satellites, many specialists contemplate that communications systems with satellites can become in the near future even more economical than by other systems of distant communications. With the aid of communications satellites it will be possible to transmit telegrams, phototelegraphic images, radio broadcasting and even television transmissions simultaneously. (Author)
