Foreword
This book is the latest contribution to the Deep SpaceCommunications and Navigation Systems (DESCANSO) series. DESCANSO is a Center of Excellence formed in 1998 by the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration (NASA) at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), which is managed under contract by the California Institute of Technology. DESCANSO is unrelated to the nearby botanical landscape, Descanso Gardens, but shares its wonderful values of growing and cultivating understanding through inspiration and example. DESCANSOs vision is to help NASA and JPL achieve continuous communications and precise navigation, anytime and anywhere. To do this, DESCANSO supports the development of new technologies, concepts, and systems; sponsors seminars and facilitates interaction and idea exchange; and shares knowledge by publishing books and articles. The DESCANSO book series, authored by scientists and engineers with many years of experience in their fields, lays a foundation for innovation by sharing state-of-the-art knowledge, fundamental principles and practices, and lessons learned in key technologies. A companion article series, the Design and Performance Summary series, captures the design and performance of specific communications and navigation systems used on JPL missions. For science and technology topics more general than communications and navigation, DESCANSO also publishes the JPL Space Science and Technology Book Series.
