  • Abstract
    Broadcasting of television and radio programmes from satellites to individual receivers is now technically possible. For Europe, allocations of up to five channels in the 12 GHz band to each country have been authorized and several countries plan to implement services in the next few years. The required characteristics of receivers for individual reception such as sensitivity, selectivity, signal processing, etc. are reviewed and it is shown that these can be satisfied by available technology.
