Optimizing the Galileo Space Communication Link

Abstract

The Galileo mission was originally designed to investigate Jupiter and its moons utilizing a high rate, X-band communication downlink with a maximum rate of 134.4 kb/s. However, following the failure of the high-gain antenna (HGA) to fully deploy, a completely new communication like design was established that is based on Galileo's S-band, low-gain antenna.
