If you would like to read further about satellite communications in
general or get some information about the case histories in Part II, you
may be interested in using the following reading list. The references
under each of the subheadings are listed chronologically; they include
books, reports, technical papers, and magazine articles. As you can see,
some of these ought to be understandable by almost anyone, but others
are quite technical in nature.
For further background in the basic physical principles that are
discussed in Part II, you may refer to many good high school and college
physics texts. An increasing number of useful physics books—both
originals and reprints—are now being published in paperback form.
