What are Communication Satellites?
• A satellite is an object that orbits another largeobject like planet.
• A communication satellite is a station in space
that is used for telecommuncation, radio andtelevision signals.
• The first satellite with radio transmitter was in1957.

Need for communication satellite.......
• Early 1950’s and 1960’s,satellite communication bymettallized weather baloons..
•Moon as an artificial satellite.In 1954, the US Naval
Research Laboratory successfully transmitted the first
voice message.
•Disadvantage using moon as a
satellite….Communications via the Moon is limited by
simultaneous visibility of the Moon by both the transmit
and the receive stations
•For further progress,had to wait for an Artificial satellite.

Types of Satellites
•In 1950’s both Active and Passive satellites were
used.
• The principle of communication by passive
satellite is based on the properties of scattering of
electromagnetic waves from different surface
areas.
•Thus an electromagnetic wave incident on a
passive satellite is scattered back towards the
earth and a receiving station can receive the
scattered wave.

Active replaces Passive
The disadvantages of passive satellites for
communications are:• The large attenuation of the signal.
• Earth Stations required high power (10 kW) to
transmit signals strong enough to produce an
adequate return echo.• Large Earth Stations with tracking facilities were
expensive.
• A global system would have required a large number
of passive satellites accessed randomly by differentusers
• Control of satellites not possible from ground.

Active satellites
• In active satellites, which amplify andretransmit the signal from the earth have
several advantages over the passive
satellites.
The advantages of active satellites are:
1.Require lower power earth station
2.Less costly
3.Not open to random use4.Directly controlled by operators from ground.

Orbital Options
• A Geosynchronous satellite(GEO)
completes one revolution around the worldevery 23 hrs and 56 minutes in order to
maintain continuous positioning above the
earth’s sub-satellite point on the equator.
• A Medium earth orbit satellite(MEO) requires a constellation
of 10 to 18 satellites in order to maintain
constant coverage of the earth.
•A Low earth orbit satellites(LEO)
offers reduced signal loss since thesesatellites are 20 to 40 times closer to the
earth in their orbits thus allowing for
smaller user terminals/antennas.

Geostationary orbits
• What are they?Geostationary orbits is fixed position to an earth-based observer.
• When was the first use?
The first truly geostationary sateliite was the SYNCOM3 in 1964.
• Why they are important in communications?
- The antennas in the ground don’t need equipment to track the satellite.
- Lower cost & complexity.
• Disadvantages?
- Not always suitable for providing services at high latitudes.
- Molniya satellite was introduced as a solution.

Geostationary Orbit (GEO)
Characteristics of Geostationary(GEO) Orbit System
• User terminals do not have to track the satellite
• Only a few satellites can provide global coverage
• Maximum life-time (15 years or more)
• Above Van Allen Belt Radiation
• Often the lowest cost system and simplest in terms of
tracking and high speed switching.Challenges of Geostationary(GEO) Orbit System
• Transmission latency or delay of 250 millisecond to
complete up/down link
• Satellite antennas must be of larger aperture size toconcentrate power and to create narrower beams for
frequency reuse
• Poor look angle elevations at higher latitudes
![Page 15: Satellitecommunication Final 111014093630 Phpapp01](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021405/577cd3e71a28ab9e7897c116/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Medium Earth Orbit (MEO)
Characteristics of Medium-Earth Orbit system
• Less latency and delay than GEO (but greater than LEO)• Improved look angle to ground receivers in higher latitudes• Fewer satellites to deploy and operate and cheaper TTC&M
systems than LEO (but more expensive than with GEO)• Longer in-orbit lifetime than LEO systems (but less than
GEO)
Challenges of Medium-Earth Orbit System • More satellites to deploy than GEO (10 to 18 vs. 3 to 4)• Ground antennas are generally more expensive and complex
because of the need to track satellites. Or, one must uselower-gain, quasi-omni antennas.
• Increased exposure to Van Allen Belt radiation

Low Earth Orbit (LEO)Characteristics of Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Systems • Low latency or transmission delay• Higher look angle (especially in high-latituderegions)• Less path loss or beam spreading• Easier to achieve high levels of frequency re-use
• Easier to operate to low-power/low-gain groundantennas.Challenges of Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Systems • Due to Larger number of satellites (50 to 70satellites). Thus higher launch costs to deploy, build,
and operate.• Harder to deploy, track and operate. There ishigher TTC&M costs even with cross links.• Shorter in-orbit lifetime due to orbital degradation

Transponders
•The Transponder (short-for Transmitter-responder ) is the
“BRAIN” of the satellite that provides connection between thesatellite’s Receive and Transmit antennas.
•Satellites can have 12 to 96 transponders plus spares,
depending on the size of the satellite.
•A transponder bandwidth can frequently be 36 MHz, 54 MHz,or 72 MHz or it can be even wider.
•A transponders function is to•Receive the signal, (Signal is one trillion times weaker then when
transmitted)
•Filter out noise,•Shift the frequency to a down link frequency (to avoid interference
w/uplink)
•Amplify for retransmission to ground

The launch process can be divided into two
phases:
• The Launch Phase
- Satellite placed into the transfer orbit.
• The Orbit Injection Phase
- Satellite transferred from elliptical transfer orbit to
geosynchronous orbit.

Launching contd….
• By riding on a rocket or in the
cargo bay of the SpaceShuttle.
• At about 120 miles (193 km)
up, the rocket's navigational
system fires small rockets, justenough to turn the launch
vehicle into a horizontal
position.
• Inertial guidance system mechanism is used to
calculate adjustments to tilt the
rocket

Frequency Efficiency
•The vital resource in satellite communications is spectrum.
•As the demand for satellite services has grown, the solution has
been;•To space satellites closer together,
•Allocate new spectrum in higher bands,
•Make satellite transmissions more efficient so that more bits/Hz can be
transmitted, and
•To find ways to re-use allocated spectrum such as through geographicseparation into separated cells or beams or through polarization
separation
•Today the satellites systems transmit more efficiently than ever
before but interference is now a bigger problem - there is a basic
trade off;•The higher the frequency the more spectrum that is available
•But, the higher the frequency the more problems with interference
from other users terrestrial, unlicensed, etc.

VSAT(VERY SMALL APERTURE TERMINALS)
What is VSAT???
• A new development in the communication satelliteworld is the development of low-cost microstations,
sometimes called VSATs.
• These tiny terminals have 1-meter or smaller antennas
(versus 10 m for a standard GEO antenna) and canput out about 1 watt of power .
• In many VSAT systems, the microstations do not have
enough power to communicate directly with one
another (via the satellite, of course). In many VSATsystems, the microstations do not have enough power
to communicate directly with one another (via the
satellite, of course).

Working of VSAT
The uplink is generally good for19.2 kbps, but the downlink is
more often 512 kbps or more.
Direct broadcast satellite
television uses this technology
for one-way transmission.
In this mode of operation, either
the sender or the receiver has a
large antenna and a powerful
amplifier. The trade-off is alonger delay in return for having
cheaper end-user stations.

What is GPS???
• The Global Positioning System (GPS)
is a space-based global navigationsatellite system that provides reliable
location and time information in all
weather and at all times and anywhereon or near the Earth when and where
there is an unobstructed line of sight to
four or more GPS satellites.

Structure• GPS consists of three parts: the space
segment, the control segment, and the
user segment.
• The U.S. Air Force develops, maintains,
and operates the space and control
segments.
• GPS satellites broadcast signals from
space, which each GPS receiver uses to
calculate its three-dimensional location(latitude, longitude, and altitude) plus the
current time.[1]

Structure contd……
• The space segment is composed of 24 to 32
satellites in medium Earth orbit and also includes theboosters required to launch them into orbit.
• The control segment is composed of a master control
station, an alternate master control station, and a
host of dedicated and shared ground antennas and
monitor stations.
• The user segment is composed of hundreds of
thousands of U.S. and allied military users of the
secure GPS Precise Positioning Service, and tens of
millions of civil, commercial, and scientific users ofthe Standard Positioning Service.
