Satellite Orbits and Coverage:
•Digital TV satellite systems utilize satellites
in various orbits, including geostationary
and non-geostationary orbits. Geostationary
satellites are positioned at a fixed point in
the sky, making them ideal for broadcasting
as they cover a specific geographic area
continuously. Non-geostationary satellites,
such as Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites,
offer global coverage but require more
complex tracking systems. Understanding
the choice of orbit and its impact on
coverage is a key aspect of digital TV
satellite systems.

Compression and Encoding:
•Digital TV signals are typically transmitted
in a compressed and encoded format.
Compression reduces the size of the data to
make efficient use of satellite bandwidth,
while encoding ensures that the signal can be
decoded correctly by the receiving
equipment. Common video compression
standards include MPEG-2 and MPEG-4.
Understanding these techniques is crucial for
efficient satellite TV broadcasting.

Footprints and Regional Coverage:
Satellite TV signals have defined coverage
areas, often referred to as "footprints." These
footprints determine the regions where
viewers can receive the signals. It's
important to consider the footprint of a
satellite to ensure that it covers the target
audience. Different satellites may have
footprints that cover specific countries,
continents, or even global regions. Knowing
how to align a satellite dish to receive
signals within a specific footprint is a
fundamental skill in digital TV satellite
systems.
 Introduction
 A satellite is any body that moves around another one in a
mathematically predictable path called orbit.
 Communications satellite : relays and amplifies radio
telecommunication signals via transponder.
 The first man made satellite with radio transmission was in
1957.
 Currently there are approximately 1071 artificial satellites
orbiting the earth.
