Abstract :
The Japanese Medium-scale Broadcasting Satellite for Experimental Purpose (BSE) was launched in April 1978 and ended all experiments in January 1982. Valuable technical data related to satellite broadcasting systems and satellite technology were obtained during the mission period through the experiments and operations of the BSE. This paper describes the outline of the satellite broadcasting experiments and in-orbit performance of the BSE.
