What is the typical upload speed of a satellite a broadband connection?

broadband satellite is an alternative for customers who cannot get cable or DSL connections A satellite connection does not require a phone-line or cable, but uses a satellite dish for two way communication, download speeds are up to 500kbps: uploads are closer to 56kbps it takes time for the signal from the satellite dish to rely to your internet service provider (isp) through the satellite orbitting the earth.

Is the orbit for a tv satellite called a polar orbit?

A polar orbit (as opposed to an equatorial orbit) passes over the poles, north and south. A low orbit is relatively close to the Earth (or other object being orbited), it might be a few hundred miles up.


What is the use of cartographic satellite?

A cartographic satellite, IRS-P5 (CARTOSAT-1), is under fabrication and testing. It will carry two panchromatic cameras with 2.5 metre spatial resolution and a swath of 30 km. The cameras provide stereo imaging useful for generation of digital terrain models. The satellite will be placed in a 617 km polar sun-synchronous orbit. The launch is planned in 2002-03 on board PSLV. Work on a more advanced cartographic satellite, CARTOSAT-2, has also been initiated. It will carry a high-resolution panchromatic camera providing 1 metre resolution and a swath of 10 km. The satellite will be placed in a sun-synchronous polar orbit at a nominal altitude of 630 km. Besides the above satellites, a Technology Experiment Satellite (TES) is under development and fabrication. TES will be used to demonstrate new technologies for remote sensing. It will be launched by PSLV in to polar sun-synchronous orbit at a height of 560 km. The launch is planned in 2001-02. In short, it is a satellite used to map the earth's surface.
