Basic Satellite Communications Basic Satellite Communications - Objectives Discuss the advantages of Satellite Communications Examine a typical satellite link Explain the principals behind the use of Geo-synchronous (GEO) satellites Describe the different frequency bands used within a satellite network Describe the various components of the satellite hardware Discuss various Satellite Communications terminology Deciding On Satellite Communications ? Geographical Coverage Unsurpassed Minimal ‘line-of-site’ difficulties Extremely reliable (99.9% Up time) Extremely Reliable Data Broadcast or Multicast Single Vendor Typically Easy Remote Site Deployment Supports multiple applications: Streaming Video and Audio applications Data applications Voice applications; Voice Over IP Why Satellite Communications ?Added Advantages Ideally suited for point-to-multipoint and large distributed networks Capable of asymmetrical bandwidth A single point of management allows for easier traffic analysis/management Operational Low Bit Error Rate (BER); typically 10-8 Capable of simultaneous delivery of data to an unlimited number of remotes Independence from typical telephone infrastructure Private Network capabilities Geo-synchronous Orbit (GEO) Satellites Frequencies used within the Frequency Spectrum Frequencies (C-Band) Frequencies (Ku-Band) Satellite Components Transponders Power System Solar Panels Propulsion Jets Guidance System Antennas RF Equipment Switching and Redundancy Components The Satellite Act like an RF mirror in the sky Transponders of 54 or 72 MHz are typical In the past also 36 MHz What is a Transponder ? Low Noise Amplifier acts as a low power pre-amplifier Frequency Down Converter Input filter (IMUX) High Power Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier (TWTA) Output isolation Output switching Output filter (OMUX) Transponde
