The 30/20 GHz fixed communications systems service demand assessment. Volume 3: Annex
A review of studies forecasting the communication market in the United States is given. The applicability of these forecasts to assessment of demand for the 30/20 GHz fixed communications system is analyzed. Costs for the 30/20 satellite trunking systems are presented and compared with the cost of terrestrial communications
The 30/20 GHz fixed communications systems service demand assessment. Volume 2: Main report
A forecast of demand for telecommunications services through the year 2000 is presented with particular reference to demand for satellite communications. Estimates of demand are provided for voice, video, and data services and for various subcategories of these services. The results are converted to a common digital measure in terms of terabits per year and aggregated to obtain total demand projections
The 30/20 GHz fixed communications systems service demand assessment. Volume 1: Executive summary
Demand for telecommunications services is forecasted for the period 1980-2000, with particular reference to that portion of the demand associated with satellite communications. Overall demand for telecommunications is predicted to increase by a factor of five over the period studied and the satellite portion of demand will increase even more rapidly. Traffic demand is separately estimated for voice, video, and data services and is also described as a function of distance traveled and city size. The satellite component of projected demand is compared with the capacity available in the C and Ku satellite bands and it is projected that new satellite technology and the implementation of Ka band transmission will be needed in the decade of the 1990's
Discovery of Isotopes of the Transuranium Elements with 93 <= Z <= 98
One hundred and five isotopes of the transuranium elements neptunium,
plutonium, americium, curium, berkelium and californium have so far been
observed; the discovery of these isotopes is discussed. For each isotope a
brief summary of the first refereed publication, including the production and
identification method, is presented.Comment: To be published in Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Table
