Abstract :
This paper presents the design and measured results of two high temperature superconductor communication satellite subsystems: (1) A 60-channel HTS multiplexer that duplicates the requirements of the INTELSAT 8 program; (2) A Ka-band Beam-link subsystem that duplicates the typical requirements of multimedia satellites
