Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the early 20th century, Electronics & Communications areas were leading to subsequent S&T innovations including in space science & artificial intelligence of today. In this effort, a major role is played by Amateur Radio / Ham Radio operators. They are called Hams when they get licenses from Govts. Anyone over 12 years can get license. Ever since Wireless was invented Hams from all walks of life from Kings to commoners i.e high professionals to amateurs including students were using wireless spectrum allocated free of cost by ITU to Hams. They carry out experiments and communicate anywhere in the world and also benefit from it. This book speaks of various aspects of Ham Radio and how to go about also explains the tremendous potential to gain skills in S&T, and to engage in activities that can lead to good employment for thousands of youth besides enjoying communications with all in the world using wireless free of cost. Book also explains how advanced nations became economic powers using Hams as a resource. Further speaks about how it is relevant today to Governments, universities and Industry benefit from these Hams

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you plan to operate a ham radio pedestrian mobile station, this is the book for you! This handbook will guide you through all phases of designing, building and operating your PM station. This is the second edition of my handbook. You will notice some changes from the first edition. The first change is in the battery chapter as most of the charging information has been deleted from that chapter. The chapter on Military Radios has also been deleted from the text. There are numerous books on this subject. I have also added a chapter on tuning your PM station and another chapter on weather and the environment. I have also included a new chapter on what most people call, "Apps." With the explosion of mobile devices in society, hams now also use their smart devices at home and most other places they visit. I've added some cool apps for use out in the great outdoors. Also look at the new chapter I added on stretching.

Book Synopsis Satellite Communications by : Timothy Pratt
Download or read book Satellite Communications written by Timothy Pratt and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 775 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extensive revision of the best-selling text on satellite communications — includes new chapters on cubesats, NGSO satellite systems, and Internet access by satellite There have been many changes in the thirty three years since the first edition of Satellite Communications was published. There has been a complete transition from analog to digital communication systems, withanalog techniques replaced by digital modulation and digital signal processing. While distribution of television programming remains the largest sector of commercial satellite communications, low earth orbit constellations of satellites for Internet access are set to challenge that dominance. In the third edition, chapters one through three cover topics that are specific to satellites, including orbits, launchers, and spacecraft. Chapters four through seven cover the principles of digital communication systems, radio frequency communications, digital modulation and multiple access techniques, and propagation in the earth’s atmosphere, topics that are common to all radio communication systems. Chapters eight through twelve cover applications that include non-geostationary satellite systems, low throughput systems, direct broadcast satellite television, Internet access by satellite, and global navigation satellite systems. The chapter on Internet access by satellite is new to the third edition, and each of the chapters has been extensively revised to include the many changes in the field since the publication of the second edition in 2003. Two appendices have been added that cover digital transmission of analog signals, and antennas. An invaluable resource for students and professionals alike, this book: Focuses on the fundamental theory of satellite communications Explains the underlying principles and essential mathematics required to understand the physics and engineering of satellite communications Discusses the expansion of satellite communication systems in areas such as direct-broadcast satellite TV, GPS, and internet access Introduces the rapidly advancing field of small satellites, referred to as SmallSats or CubeSats Provides relevant practice problems based on real-world satellite systems Satellite Communications is required reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students in satellite communications courses and an authoritative reference for engineers working in communications, systems and networks, and satellite operations and management.
Download or read book Just Wind written by William G. Armstrong and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-07 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two pioneer balloonists, Tom Gatch in 1974 and Larry Newman in the early 1990s, led widely reported stratospheric expeditions that nearly earned them a place in aviation history. They both used pressurized balloons, a dangerous and sophisticated type of aircraft, and sought the swift wind of the jet stream to carry them forward. In the first story, a determined, self-financed and self-reliant Tom Gatch in his Light Heart tries to become the first man to conquer the Atlantic Ocean alone by balloon. Ascending under a 10-balloon cluster, he makes it halfway across before disappearing, and the Department of Defense mounts a massive but futile mid-ocean search. What happened to him? Why did he do it? In the second story, Larry Newman leads an international crew in Earthwinds, the most expensive and heavily marketed balloon expedition ever undertaken, attempting to become the first to fly around the world non-stop. He often said that his 354-foot tall aircraft was more complicated to fly than the Space Shuttle. He makes three ascents, each with a different crew. With amusing, anguishing and astonishing frankness, the aeronautical adventures of Light Heart and Earthwinds are presented for the first time from a true insider's perspective.
