SATELLITE WITH MULTI-ZONE COVERAGE BY MEANS OF BEAM DIVERSION

摘要

The invention relates to a telecommunication satellite with multi-zone coverage, comprising at least one transmission and/or reception antenna with at least one transmission and/or reception source (C, R), for the provision or reception of a beam in a selected direction, defined by a selected phase value and a selected amplitude value. At least one of the sources for transmission and/or reception (C, R) is coupled to processing means (MT) for deviation of the beam thereof and the direction of reception in at least one other direction, selected by variation of at least the amplitude value.
