    This paper describes the domestic mobile satellite communication system (MSCS) that is scheduled to be introduced in India in 1995/1996 as a part of the INSAT system. The INSAT MSCS will operate in the 2.6/2.5 GHz band. After briefly describing the need for a domestic MSCS, the reasons for selecting the S-band and the overall features of the system are given. The paper also describes the services, types of terminals, communication techniques, etc., that are to be introduced in the system and the communications capacity that would be available in the system
