What is the area of the Earth's surface where a satellite signal can be received?

The â??footprintâ?? is the area of the Earthâ??s surface where a satellite signal can be received. The footprint on Earth is determined by the footprint of the antennas on the satellites.


Why is shape of satellite footprint is irregular?

It is not irregular: it is simply the projection of a regular curve onto the surface of a sphere.


What is a footprint?

footprint is the ground area that its transponders offer coverage, and determines the satellite dish diameter required to receive each transponder's signal. There is usually a different map for eachtransponder as each may be aimed to cover different areas of the ground.


Are satellite dishes the same?

The satellites which transmit signals for satellite television are all placed in a geosynchronous orbit, which means they orbit the earth exactly 22,300 miles over the equator and they rotate at the same speed as the earth itself. Each satellite transponder, and there are many on every satellite, is designed and positioned to deliver a signal over a specific area known as its footprint. Typical footprints may cover the whole of the continental US, perhaps the whole of Western Europe or something smaller such as just the UK. All of the signals will make it to a wider area than the designed footprint so it is possible to receive the satellite transmission outside the defined area. Normally, this will require a bigger dish and more sensitive receivers to handle the weaker signal. Don't expect a North American footprint to be received in Europe or even a UK footprint to be found halfway across Europe. If you are hoping to use a satellite feed outside its intended area, always talk to satellite installers in the local area. They usually have a good knowledge of what is possible and what equipment to use.

Can a subscription satellite radio be listened to on different continents?

Yes, but only if the recievers is inside of the footprint of the satellite or land station. In the US for instance, you should be able to get a signal in areas of Canada and Mexico close to the US border. Worldspace Satellite Radio can be used in a variety of countries in Asia and Africa. All you need is the Worldspace radio itself.
