• Description:
  The availability and performance of L-band avionics equipment was investigated for possible future use in the AEROSAT experiments on communications, surveillance and navigation. The purpose was to review technology pertinent to low-noise pre-amplifiers, power amplifiers, antennas, and the voice-and-data modems which could be employed for an aircraft-satellite link.
