Transcription

Transmitting Data at 77 Mbps above the horizon LLCD
LLCD Accomplishments –
No Issues with
Atmospheric Effects like
Fading and Turbulence
Transmitting Data at
77 Mbps
< 5° above the
horizon
LLCD Accomplishments – Streaming
HD Video and Delivering Useful
Scientific Data from LADEE to Earth

“Pragmatists”
Each group has different expectations for a new, disruptive product:
 Innovators see a competitive advantage to allow them to leapfrog their
competition…
 …While Pragmatists want a COMPLETE SOLUTION to a business
problem (the Whole Product Model)
