Abstract :
Summary form only given. The "Space Internet" is investigated by developing beam antennas, experiments on which were performed on the Space Shuttle. The Space Internet, i.e., space international network via satellites, is a project for international communications around the Earth. Fundamental electromagnetic fields for the Space Internet are obtained by developing electromagnetic fields of beam antennas in space. Typical fields for a tree type satellite network are shown.
