Abstract General investigations and results from ratherextensive measurement campaigns are presented tocharacterize the propagation channel of SatellitePersonal Communication Systems; in the measurements the satellite was simulated by a helicopter andmeasurements at S band and L band were made. A newconceptual partitioning of the full link is introduced;the measrement equipment and the environment aredescribed. The major part of the paper deals withpresentation of the measurement results and theiranalyses. Measured and analyzed are average lossincluding satellite elevation and azimuth positiondependence, first-order statistics, Doppler characteristics, andwide-band characteristics. Finally, some rather generalconclusions are drawn.
