The call for papers resulted in a high number of submis- sions, from which we have been able to select 12 excellent papers dealing with the different aspects of satellite commu- nications and navigation. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques are attracting a considerable amount of attention from within the terrestrial wireless community. The

Satellite to Satellite Visibility [PDF]
In this paper, general analytical and computational technique for satellite-to-satellite visibility will be established. The developments are general in the sense that the visibility conditions can be used whatever the types of the satellite orbits may be. Numerical applications are also included.
