What is Satellite Communication?

Satellite communication is the method of transporting information from one place to another using a
communication satellite in orbit around the Earth. Watching the English Premier League every weekend
with your friends would have been impossible without this. A communication satellite is an artificial
satellite that transmits the signal via a transponder by creating a channel between the transmitter and the
receiver located at different locations on the Earth.
Telephone, radio, television, internet, and military applications use satellite communications. Believe it or
not, more than 2000 artificial satellites are hurtling around in space right above your heads.

Need for Satellite Communication

We know that there are different ways to communicate and the propagation of these waves can take place in
different ways. Ground wave propagation and sky wave propagation are the two ways in which
communication took place for a certain distance. The maximum distance covered by them is 1500 km and
this was overcome by the introduction of satellite communication

6
How Satellite Communications Work?

The communication satellites are similar to the space mirrors that help us in bouncing the signals such as radio, internet data, and television from
one side of the earth to another. There are three stages that are involved which explain the working of satellite communications. These are:
▹ Uplink
▹ Transponders
▹ Downlink
Let’s consider an example of signals from a television. In the first stage, the signal from the television broadcast on the other side of the earth is
first beamed up to the satellite from the ground station on the earth. This process is known as uplink.
The second stage involves transponders such as radio receivers, amplifiers, and transmitters. These transponders are used for boosting the
incoming signal and to change their frequency so that the outgoing signals are not altered. Depending on the incoming signal sources, the
transponders vary.
The final stage involves a downlink in which the data is sent to the other end of the receiver on the earth. It is important to understand that
usually there is one uplink and multiple downlinks.

Satellite Communication Services

There are two categories in which the satellite communication services can be classified:

▹ One-way satellite communication: In one-way satellite communication, the


communication usually takes place between either one or multiple earth stations through
the help of a satellite.

▹ Two- way satellite communication: In two-way satellite communication, the information


is exchanged between any two earth stations. It can be said that there is a point to point
connectivity.

Advantages of Satellite Communication

The following are the advantages of satellite communication:


▹ Installments of circuits are easy.
▹ The elasticity of these circuits is excellent.
▹ With the help of satellite communication, every corner of the earth can be covered.
▹ The user fully controls the network.

9
Disadvantages of Satellite Communication

The following are the disadvantages of satellite communication:


▹ Initial expenditure is expensive.
▹ There are chances of blockage of frequencies.
▹ Propagation and interference.

▹ Digital cinema
▹ Radio broadcasting
▹ Amateur radio
▹ Internet access
▹ Military
