In the 1970s, the work to be carried out was based on computations on large and powerful computers. Our experience from the Laboratory of Electromagnetic Theory at DTU was based on computations caried out at NEUCC, but the computer here…

As satellite communication emerged during last half of the 1960s, TV broadcasting from satellites were foreseen in the near future. This would be based on reflector antennas on the ground and – important for TICRA – on the satellites. In…
