Space-Based Relay Simulations

Abstract

This report displays field-of-view studies through computer simulation using the Analytical Graphics, Inc., Systems Tool Kit® (STK®). This task analyzes the potential performance for a variety of circular low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites and some relative to various user-mission orbits communicating with geosynchronous-Earth-orbit (GEO) satellites. We further investigate relative data volumes taking into account the varying satellite distances with an omnidirectional user antenna.
