Scientific paper

COMETS (Communications and Broadcasting Engineering Test Satellite) is the research and development purpose satellite in the area of satellite communications and broadcasting technologies, to be launched in 1997 by H-2 launch vehicle. The main mission is to experimentally demonstrate and evaluate the technologies on inter-orbit communications, advanced satellite broadcasting on Ka-band and advanced mobile satellite communications on Ka-band and millimeter-wave band. The development of COMETS has been started on March 1991 as the preliminary design phase, and the preliminary design reviews of the subsystems and systems of COMETS had been held between June 1992 to April 1993, in which the feasibility of COMETS system was confirmed. This paper presents the outline of S/C (spacecraft) mission, system configuration, S/C operation plan and development plan of COMETS based on the results of the preliminary design.
