Problem 1: Angle of IncidenceOrientation of ASTRO-G
9.6-m antenna points stars by changing the satellite attitude
Ka antenna points one of Ka stations only when it is visible (> 5 deg El) above 5500 kmOtherwise, Ka antenna points the geocentre SLR array sync. with Ka antenna

SummaryArray design
Mixture of LEO-type and GNSS-typeReturn Intensity: Mostly stronger than ETS-8, Huge variation in time
Plenty of new problems/concepts due to its orbitAngle of incidenceVelocity aberrationDouble pulse elimination
Basic design done, but still needs fine tuning
We sincerely hope your supports to this challenging target.Laser ranging helps blackhole studies for the first time ever!
(But its launch is FY2012 = still 4 years ahead)
