Abstract
This paper describes adaptive beam formation of a satellite-borne antenna for suppressing the uplink interference in satellite communication. The S-band phased-array antenna installed on the Engineering Test Satellite-VI (ETS-VI) was used in this experiment. The beamforming network in the satellite was controlled from the earth through a TT&C link. It was found that the installed antenna could form a designed beam pattern. It was also found that the actual interference on the S-band intersatellite link could be effectively suppressed. © 1998 Scripta Technica, Electron Comm Jpn Pt 1, 81(11): 58–66, 1998
