: Mathematical foundations for link budget calculations (signal-to-noise ratios) and techniques that allow multiple users to share a satellite, such as FDMA , TDMA , and CDMA . Key Technical Parameters Orbit Type Altitude (approx.) Typical Use Case LEO 100–500 miles Satellite phones, low-latency data MEO 6,000–12,000 miles GPS and navigation systems GEO 22,282 miles Direct-to-home (DTH) TV, weather monitoring Modern Applications

: The latest editions, often co-authored with Rishabh Anand, are available through or help finding specific Scilab codes for the link design problems? Satellite Communication by D.C. Agarwal & Rishabh Anand

: Insights into the technical "guts" of a satellite, including Attitude and Orbit Control (AOCS), Power systems, and Telemetry, Tracking, Command & Monitoring (TTC&M).

For general concepts that align with the book's curriculum (such as link design or orbital mechanics), you can access digital notes from institutions like the Malla Reddy College of Engineering & Technology .
