Cover Story: GeoSurf constellations have most of the advantages of current GEO, MEO and LEO satellite constellations without having most of their drawbacks, because any transmitter/receiver will be linked to a satellite as if the site were at the equator and the satellite at the local zenith. Doppler phenomena and latency are largely minimized because the connected satellite is always seen almost at the local zenith. The connections among satellites are easy because the positions in the orbital plane and in adjacent planes are constant, although with variable distances. No steering antennas are required. The tropospheric propagation fading and scintillations are minimized. Rain attenuation is independent of altitude and number of satellites and can be reliably calculated with the Synthetic Storm Technique. The results are oriented to design systems faded by rain attenuation. View this paper
