EARTH-MOON-EARTH RADIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

FIELD: satellite communication engineering. SUBSTANCE: round-the- clock communication with remote territories of Earth is ensured by connecting additional geostationary satellite on equatorial orbit of Earth- Moon portion, its receiving antenna being aimed at Earth for receiving ground transmitter signals; transmitting antenna is permanently directed to center of Moon's disk during movement over orbit at minimal satellite- to-Moon distance and is connected for transmission within direct Moon visibility section at angle ±theta relative to conventional Earth-Moon axis; angle theta meets inequality theta<=0,09deg. EFFECT: enhanced reliability at reduced power of ground transmitters. 4 cl, 3 dwg
