Satellite communication uses satellites as microwave repeaters in space to transmit and receive radio signals between earth stations. Satellites provide advantages like wider coverage area compared to terrestrial systems, and transmission costs are independent of distance within coverage. However, launching satellites is costly and satellite bandwidth is limited. Satellite communication finds applications in radio/TV broadcasting, internet access, data transfer, GPS, military communications, and more.

SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

Submitted to- Md. Asif Sir


ABHISHEK KUMAR DUDI

Pursuing B.Tech (CSE).


Reg no. : 11915399
Roll no. : 60.

DESCRIPTION:-
Life isn’t finding
yourself,
Life is about creating
yourself.
INTRODUcTION
▪ The word satellite originated from
the latin word “satellit”-meaning an
attendant, one who is constantly
hovering around attending to a
“master”.
▪ A satellite is simply any body that
moves around another (usually much
larger) one in a mathematically
predictable path called an orbit.
NEED FOR COMMUNICATION SATELLITE…..
● Early 1950’s and 1960’s , satellite communication by
metallized weather balloons…
● Moon as an artificial satellite. In 1954, the US Naval
Research Laboratory successfully transmitted the first
voice message.
● Disadvantage using Moon as a satellite….Communication
via the moon is limited by simultaneous visibility of the
moon by both the transmit and receive stations .
● For further progress, had to wait for an Artificial satellite….
NEED FOR COMMUNICATION

Due to necessity of exchange of some information, means of


communication exist .

➔ Sender
➔ Channel
➔ Receiver
HOW SATELLITE WORKS ?
➔ A microwave repeater station in space.
➔ A repeater is a circuit, which increases
the strength of received signal and then
transmit it.
➔ Satellite’s footprint is the area which
receive a signal of useful strength from
the satellite.
➔ Area of coverage is more than that of
terrestrial systems.
▪ The area which receives a signal of
useful strength from the satellite is
known as the SATELLITE’S
FOOTPRINT.
▪ The transmission system from the
earth station to the satellite is called
the uplink and the system from the
satellite to the earth station is called
the downlink.
ADVANTAGES
▪ The coverage area of a satellite greatly
exceeds that of a terrestrial system.
▪ Transmission cost of a satellite is
independent of the distance from the centre
of the coverage area.
▪ Satellite to satellite communication is very
precise .
▪ Higher bandwidths are available for use.
DISADVANTAGES
▪ Launching satellite into orbits is costly.
▪ Satellite bandwidth is gradually
becoming used up .
▪ There is larger propagation delay in
satellite communication than in
terrestrial communication.
APPLICATIONS
● In Radio Broadcasting
● Internet Applications
● Data Transfer
● GPS Applications
● Internet Surfing
● Voice Communications
● Research and Development Sectors
● Military Applications
● Navigations
● TV Broadcasting
SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

➔ Ground Wave Propagation.


(Frequencies up to 2 MHz)

➔ Sky Wave Propagation


(Frequency 2-30 MHz)

➔ Maximum hop distance is


limited to 1500 km only.
CONCLUSION
We could say satellite
communication brought a big
revolution in communication
process.
