Abstract :
MBC systems have included point-to-point links, and both fixed station and dynamic vehicular networks. Available systems range from low data rate telemetry, through medium data rate message handling to high-speed conversational voice developments. This paper outlines previous work in the field and describes current systems and technology under development. Future research and development avenues are indicated with particular reference to local contributions
