Domestic satellites are emerging as an exciting alternative to satisfying the communications requirements of data users, providing both flexibility and economy. Two attributes of satellites are especially advantageous for the transmission of data in large geographically distributed computer networks. They are (i) the availability of wide transmission bandwidths over long distances and (ii) the multi-access broadcast capability inherent in radio communications which permits transmission to, and reception from, all points in a satellite connected network. These considerations also apply (on a smaller geographical scale) to the use of ground radio channels in a terminal access computer-communication network exemplified by the ALOHA System at the University of Hawaii.
