====================================================================
The First International Conference
on
Advances in Satellite and Space Communications
SPACOMM 2009
July 19-24, 2009 - Colmar, France
http://www.iaria.org/conferences2009/ComSPACOMM09.html
====================================================================
Significant efforts have been allotted to design and deploy global
navigation satellite communications systems, Satellite navigation
technologies, applications, and services experience still challenges
related to signal processing, security, performance, and
accuracy. Theories and practices on system-in-package RF design
techniques, filters, passive circuits, microwaves, frequency handling,
radars, antennas, and radio communications and radio waves propagation
have been implemented. Services based on their use are now available,
especially those for global positioning and navigation. For example,
it is critical to identify the location of targets or the direction of
arrival of any signal for civilians or on-purpose applications; smarts
antennas and advanced active filters are playing a crucial role. Also
progress has been made for transmission strategies; multiantenna
systems can be used to increase the transmission speed without need
for more bandwidth or power. Special techniques and strategies have
been developed and implemented in electronic warfare target location
systems.
The SPACOMM series of events constitutes an inaugural attempt to
evaluate the state of the art on academia and industry on the
satellite, radar, and antennas based communications bringing together
scientists and practitioners with challenging issues, achievements,
and lessons learnt.
