Description:
The functions of the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) are discussed. The primary purpose of the system is to transmit signals to and receive signals from earth orbiting user spacecraft, and provide data from which user spacecraft ephemerides can be calculated. The system configuration is described and illustrated. The frequency plan is analyzed to show the frequency coverage and the signal handling capability of the system. The characteristics of the components of the system are tabulated.
