"The most cost-effective satellite systems for the Canadian domestic long-haul network are Anik-like satellites in the early 1980's and satellites similar to the RCA Globcom satellite in the late 1980's and early 1990's. In a minimum-total-cost network three such satellites would be placed in orbit. However, if present institutional arrangements continue throughout the next decade it is likely that only two such satellites would be used. The present value in 1980 of the extra cost of the latter development would be about ten million 1973 dollars"--Abstract, page 1.
