Preface
This book of Proceedings contains papers of the "Third European Workshop
on Mobile/Personal Satcoms" (EMPS '98), held in Venice, Italy, November
1998.
For the third time, EMPS has given to the experts an opportunity for
exchanging opinions and novel ideas in the exciting field of mobile and
personal satellite communications.
As with the 1996 edition, EMPS '98 issued a formal call for papers, gathering a
large number of contributions from many different countries. Each submitted
paper has been reviewed by international referees and, finally, selected by the
Workshop Steering Committee (WSC). Furthermore, key-topics in the field of
mobile/personal satcoms have also been focused on through a few invited
papers.
As EMPS has been conceived to gather trends and novelties in the field of
mobile/personal satcoms, it is tightly matched to the natural evolution of the
field itself.
In this frame, the reader will notice how the dominant topics are related to
system and network issues, while a very little number of contributions have
been provided in the propagation and channel related areas. This represents a
natural trend of a field, where deep efforts have been paid in the past years to
understanding and modelling the physical layer and where the present
interest is mostly migrating to the applications.
Further changes and novelties may be envisaged in the future of this field. I
believe that EMPS will continue to represent an effective opportunity to catch
and understand more deeply this evolution.
I would like to thank first the EMPS co-founders and chairmen of the past
EMPS editions, Prof. F. Ananasso and Prof. F. Vatalaro, for giving to me the
opportunity of organising and chairing this key-event.
I would like then to thank all people who participated in the Workshop
assessment and organisation. In particular, I wish to thank the WSC for its
precious support, all referees, chairmen, authors and attendees. All of them
have contributed deeply to the success of this event, also rendering my job
extremely pleasant.
