A propagation delay is the amount of time it takes radio waves to travel from the surface of the Earth to the satellite and then back down to the Earth. The calculation of the delay is based upon the altitude and position of the satellite systems.

Can the 1.7k latency be lowered at all if you have HughesNet satellite Internet and play sentence quite frequently when you have no alternative to satellite?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to do anything about the latency issue with satellite Internet. Latency is the time delay experienced from when the Internet signal travels up to the satellite and back down to your receiver dish. It is exactly the same delay you may have noticed when a news reporter is broadcasting from, say Tel Aviv and you see a time delay. This delay is just about half a second.


What is the delay on a live satellite feed?

The delay on a live satellite feed can vary depending on several factors such as the distance the signal needs to travel and the processing time at different points along the transmission path. In general, delays can range from a few milliseconds to several seconds.

Why is satellite communication not widely used for mobile communication.?

In satellite communication uplink (transmission of signal from earth station to satellite ) & downlink (reception of signal from satellite to earth station) takes place TX & RX involves a finite amount of delay which is acceptable in data communication, but i audio & video TX this delay is unacceptable, overlapping/ alaising causes errors which demodulated by qpsk.

What is propogation?

Nothing. It's misspelling; it should be "propagation".


A A client server system uses a satellite network with the satellite at a height of 40000 km What is the best-case delay in response to a request?

The best-case delay is the time it takes for a signal to travel the round trip of 80,000 km to the satellite and back. Since electromagnetic signals travel at the speed of light, we have the following: 80,000,000 m / 299,792,458 m/s .= 0.267 seconds


Is satellite high-speed Internet reliable?

For the most part yes. However, in severe weather conditions some interference may occur. The biggest problem with satellite connections is the delay in the signal. The transmission must be sent to geosynchronous satellites which are stationary over 22,000 miles above the earth. In the end the delay is almost a second to go up then back down again and be processed. If you have any other alternative to satellite and you play any sort of latency required online games, get another program. Satellite internet is completely unusable with any sort of gaming and is horrible for gaming.
