Satellite-based Applications on Climate Change


Free Download Satellite-based Applications on Climate Change By Alfred M. Powell Jr., John J. Qu (auth.), John Qu, Alfred Powell, M.V.K. Sivakumar (eds.)
2013 | 371 Pages | ISBN: 9400758715 | PDF | 12 MB
Climate and other environmental changes are drawing unprecedented concern and attention from national governments, international organizations and local communities. Global warming has left noticeable impacts on the environment and the ecosystems it supports (including humans), and has important implications for sustainable economic and social development in the future. Satellite observations of climate and environmental change have become an increasingly important tool in recent years in helping to shape the response of international communities to this critical global challenge. The book presents the latest advances in satellite-based remote sensing of the Earth’s environment – ranging from applications in climate and atmospheric science to hydrology, oceanography, hydrology, geomorphology, ecology and fire studies. Introductory chapters also cover key technical aspects such as instrumentation, calibration, data analysis, and GIS tools for decision-making.

Multibeam Phased Array Antennas as Satellite Constellation Ground Station (Modern Antenna)


Free Download Multibeam Phased Array Antennas as Satellite Constellation Ground Station (Modern Antenna) by Guolong He, Xin Gao, Rentian Zhang
English | November 22, 2023 | ISBN: 9819979099 | 113 pages | MOBI | 16 Mb
This book focuses on the multi-beam phased array antenna as a satellite ground station. As there are already many excellent books on phased array antennas in the literature, this book focuses mainly on some engineering practices and fills the gap between principles and practices, such as array excitation error impact analysis and calibration methods, array geometry design for hemispherical coverage, multiple beam resource management, etc. This book is particularly suitable for readers interested in satellite constellation design or satellite ground station design. This book also benefits researchers and engineers in the fields of phased array antennas, aerospace engineering, telecommunications, etc.

Satellite Monitoring of Water Resources in the Middle East


Free Download Satellite Monitoring of Water Resources in the Middle East by Amin Shaban
English | EPUB | 2022 | 414 Pages | ISBN : 3031155483 | 153.7 MB
This book presents both updated and new measurements on water resources from selective pilot areas form the Middle East. Demand for water has become very crucial notably in arid and semiarid regions like in the Middle East. The changing climate and the increased population are the most striking challenges on water resources in this region where the largest part of its territory is dry lands and deserts with minimal precipitation and high evaporation rates, and thus, the average per capita of water does not exceed 25 m3/year. This resulted in developing many studies and researches in different Middle East countries to clearly identify and assess the hydrological characteristics of the available water resources and to explore new resources in order to secure balanced water supply/demand.

Advanced Attitude Control of Satellite A Modeling Error Compensation Approach


Free Download Advanced Attitude Control of Satellite: A Modeling Error Compensation Approach by Bing Xiao , Zhaoyue Chen , Jingwen Xu , Lu Cao
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 273 Pages | ISBN : 9819728460 | 53.4 MB
This book focuses on the high-accuracy attitude control system design and approaches for satellite with modeling error including system uncertainties, actuator faults, and disturbances. It presents a systematically and almost self-contained description of the many facets of envisaging, designing, implementing, or experimentally exploring modeling error compensation-based attitude control of satellites. The advanced treatment of practical issues in satellite attitude compensation control is one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn the latest solutions in attitude control system design of satellites. The book intends to provide a unified platform for understanding and applicability of the modeling error compensation-based attitude control for different purposes in aerospace engineering and some related fields. It can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of attitude control of satellites and other unmanned systems, aerospace engineering, etc.
