MPT SATELLITE EARTH STATION

(Toe Kyung Ka Lay)

 Ku Band, C Band and Ka Band are mostly used in MPT

communications.
 Only Ku Band and C Band are used for user.
 Ku Band used linear transmission and C Band used
circular transmission.
 There is x and y axis for linear transmission.
 Ku Band’s frequency range is between 12 to 18 GHz
and wavelength range is between 2.5 to 1.67 cm.
 C Band can use in whole nation but it’s pricey.
 C Band’s frequency range is between 4 to 8 GHz and
wavelength range is between 7.5 to 3.75 cm.
 Ku Band can use only in Yangon and Mandalay.
 Ku Band frequencies are 1772.375 MHz in Yangon and
1865.875 MHz in Mandalay.
 C Band can use in whole nation but it’s pricey.
 C Band frequency is 1803 MHz.
 Ku Band can’t use in some situations (example: raining,
storm) while C Band can use in every situations.
 So for backup plan, Thanlyn Ku Band station branch is
used.
 The communication tiles are far 50 miles from each
other’s.
 If there is the place where can’t be used tile, they used
satellite to connect.
 MPT is currently using IP star satellite which also
called Thaicom 5 star.
 Thaicom 5 used to provide communications services to
Asia, Africa, America, Europe and Australia.
 Thaicom 5 located at a longitude of 78.5 degree east for
operational service.
 Thaicom 5 perigee and apogee are 35777 kilometers
and 35796 kilometers.
 In satellite, there are three orbits. They are LEO (Lower
Earth Orbit), MEO (Medium Earth Orbit), and GEO
(Geostationary Earth Orbit).
 GEO is currently used and it’s far 35785 km from earth.
 GEO can reached two third of the earth.
 Thaicom 5 is located at 120 degree east, C Band is
located at 62 degree east and Ku Band is located at 64
degree east.
 Every user gets their own IP (Internet Protocol)
address.
 For every communication, radio and television stations
are regarded their own frequencies.
