Abstract :
There has been a significant increase in recent years in the utilization of spaceborne communications-electronics systems to perform a variety of functions including communications, navigation, and surveillance. This growth has resulted in increasing concern over congestion to the geostationary orbit and frequency spectrum. The DOD Electromagnetic Compatibitility Analysis Center (ECAC) has been tasked to develop the required data base and analysis models to support future DOD space system planning. The project, begun at ECAC in 1981, consists of three major elements: data base design and software development, data compilation and analysis model development. As of January 1984, over 160 space systems had been identified and skeletal records describing these systems entered into an automated data base. Future efforts will concentrate on compilation of more detailed data for the data base and development of appropriate electromagnetic compatibility analysis models.
