Ground-based antenna for concurrent communications with multiple spacecraft
Abstract:
A system includes an antenna of a ground station. The antenna is configured to generate signal beams. The signal beams define a plurality of cells in the sky. The antenna is fixed in position relative to the ground and mechanically fixed to a particular orientation. The antenna is a phased array antenna.
