FIELD: engineering of satellite communication systems.
SUBSTANCE: satellites operate on portion of their orbits close to apogee and have characteristics of geostationary satellites. Orbits of satellites have such a configuration, for which at earth surface several trajectories are formed, positioned close to each other, repeating and passing around Earth. On each trajectory satellites are active only on arcs, positioned substantially lower or higher than equator, to make it possible to create large quantity of non-geostationary orbital slots, which substantially increase capabilities of global satellite communication system, satellites of which create no interference to operation of existing satellites, positioned on geostationary ring. Between satellites on each active arc and between satellites on active arcs of adjacent trajectories a certain minimal distance is maintained, which excludes possible creation of mutual interference in operation of non-geostationary satellites.
EFFECT: increased capacity of global satellite communication system without creating interference to operation of existing satellites, positioned on geostationary ring.
