This book contains the proceedings of ICTRS 2023, the 12th International Conference on Telecommunications and Remote Sensing, held in a hybrid format in Rhodes, Greece, in September 2023. ICTRS is an annual event that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in telecommunications, remote sensing, and their societal implications. The 7 full papers and 4 short papers were thoroughly reviewed and selected from the 24 qualified submissions. ICTRS 2023 addresses a large number of research areas and topics, such as: wireless telecommunications and networking; electromagnetic waves and fields; electronics and photonics; remote sensing and data interpretation; remote sensing and Internet-of-Things; and societal impact.

This book contains the proceedings of ICTRS 2022 (the 11th International Conference on Telecommunications and Remote Sensing), held in Sofia, Bulgaria, on 21-22 November 2022. ICTRS is an annual event that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in telecommunications, remote sensing, and their societal implications. As mentioned already, ICTRS is essentially leaning toward telecommunications and remote sensing plus relevant societal implications. In this, ICTRS 2022 addresses a large number of research areas and topics, such as: Wireless Telecommunications and Networking; Electromagnetic Waves and Fields; Electronics and Photonics; Remote Sensing and Data Interpretation; Remote Sensing and Internet-Of-Things; and Societal Impact.

This book provides in-depth explanations of design theories and methods for remote sensing satellites, as well as their practical applications. There have been significant advances in spacecraft remote sensing technologies over the past decade. As the latest edition of the book “Space Science and Technology Research,” it draws on the authors’ vast engineering experience in system design for remote sensing satellites and offers a valuable guide for all researchers, engineers and students who are interested in this area. Chiefly focusing on mission requirements analyses and system design, it also highlights a range of system design methods.

This new edition introduces and examines the space technologies that benefit our everyday lives. Each chapter now includes exercises and problems, and the content covers new satellites and emerging technologies. It explores the ever-improving quality of satellite systems and services, and also investigates ways to bring about higher resolution satellite imagery and lower satellite costs. The focus is on man-made satellites, which are becoming smaller, smarter, cheaper, and easier to launch, having a longer life span, and are less susceptible to interference. Furthermore, the book considers advances in several key technologies that affect the satellite industry. Includes extensive study questions and exercises after each chapter. Explains present commercial space technology and its future outlook. Explores the many applications of space technologies and their impact on our lives, including real world examples. Presents a future outlook on robotics, communications and navigation, and human health and nanotechnology. Provides a clear understanding of space, space technologies, space applications, space security, space regulations, a space roadmap, and their impact on the lives of humans now and for generations to come.

Discover a modern approach to the analysis, modeling and design of high sensitivity phased arrays. Network theory, numerical methods and computational electromagnetic simulation techniques are uniquely combined to enable full system analysis and design optimization. Beamforming and array signal processing theory are integrated into the treatment from the start. Digital signal processing methods such as polyphase filtering and RFI mitigation are described, along with technologies for real-time hardware implementation. Key concepts from interferometric imaging used in radio telescopes are also considered. A basic development of theory and modeling techniques is accompanied by problem sets that guide readers in developing modeling codes that retain the simplicity of the classical array factor method while incorporating mutual coupling effects and interactions between elements. Combining current research trends with pedagogical material suitable for a first-year graduate course, this is an invaluable resource for students, teachers, researchers, and practicing RF/microwave and antenna design engineers.
