Abstract:The information revolution has transformed telecommunication markets. The explosive demand for global communication has spawned accelerating technical innovation and fierce competition for telecommunication revenues. Deregulation of telecommunications in the U.S. and in other countries combined with advances in technology have contributed to enhancements in computer capability and affordability, an explosion in use of the Internet, and the wide availability and use of mobile phones, facsimile machines, smart pagers, and other electronic communication tools. Satellites in geosynchronous orbit (GEO) are a vital link in the world's telecommunication infrastructure. This Special Report summarizes the functions of satellites in geosynchronous orbit and describes the current satellite population in terms of the markets it serves.
