<title>Radar &amp; Satellite Operations in the US - Industry Risk Rating Report</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R538-30978.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[  Industry Risk Ratings Synopsis   This Industry Risk Ratings report from IBISWorld evaluates the inherent risks associated with the Radar & Satellite Operations in the US industry. Industry Risk is assumed to be 'the difficulty, or otherwise, of the business operating environment'.  The report looks at the operational risk associated with this industry. Three types of risk are recognized in our analysis. These are: risk arising from within the industry itself (structural risk), risks arising from the expected future performance of the industry (growth risk) and risk arising from forces external to the industry (external sensitivity risk).  This approach is new in that it analyses non-financial information surrounding each industry. Industries are scored on a 9-point scale, where 1 represents the lowest risk and 9 the highest. The Industry Risk score measures expected Industry Risk over the coming 12-18 months.   Industry Definition   This industry covers all management operations involved in the provision of specialized telecommunication services ]]></description>

<description> <![CDATA[Please note that this report is part of a tracker that is updated quarterly.  If you would like to purchase all four reports in a given year, the cost is $3995.00.   

Following the remarkable growth in 2008, China's CMMB market continues its fast pace. By June 2009, China's mobile and satellite broadcasting corporation (CMSBC) had established CMMB operational companies in 23 provinces in China; the CMMB network covers 178 major cities in China.   

In March, CMSBC started its first trial commercial operation in Shanghai, with a monthly subscription of US$2.9, or annually US$29.4. However, as of June, CMSBC had only developed 5,000 pay subscribers due to the shortage of attractive content and the expensive subscription fee (for China).

<title>Free Space Optics-From Wireless Fiber to Visible Light Communications</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R606-98.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[This report addresses technologies and marketplace for two Free Space Optics communications types.   They are: 
  	Wireless Fiber Communications (WFC), and 
  	Visible Light Communications (VLC). 
 
As shown in the report, though these technologies are based on different principles, they both use light as a transmission media and have many other similarities.
  
The WFC market development still remains uncertain.  Though this report showed the potential market with wide open doors, it is presented only by a compact group of vendors (with such leaders as fSONA and LightPointe); recently, some vendors went out of business, or discontinued WFC products. On the one hand, the push for ever-greater bandwidth could eventually outrun any RF capacity, forcing a shift to WFC. On the other hand, RF techniques have a long head start in inside-building applications, and the weather problem remains a severe one for WFC inter-building links. Perhaps ]]></description>

<title>Analyzing Microwave Power Transmission &amp; Solar Power Satellite Systems</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R3456-311.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[Microwave power transmission (MPT) involves the usage of microwaves to transmit power through outer space or the atmosphere without the need for wires. It is a sub-type of the more general wireless energy transfer methods, and is the most interesting because microwave devices offer the highest efficiency of conversion between DC-electricity and microwave radiative power.
  
Following World War II, which saw the development of high-power microwave emitters known as cavity magnetrons, the idea of using microwaves to transmit power was researched. In 1964, William C. Brown demonstrated a miniature helicopter equipped with a combination antenna and rectifier device called a rectenna. The rectenna converted microwave power into electricity, allowing the helicopter to fly. In principle, the rectenna is capable of very high conversion efficiencies - over 90% in optimal circumstances.
  
Most proposed MPT systems now usually include a phased array microwave transmitter. While these have lower efficiency levels ]]></description>
