Best Answer

It is because a mobile is operated on a battery with low power and therefore it sends signals on low(uplink) frequencies whereas a base station is driven by high power and can easily send signals on high(downlink) frequencies. This can be verified by Friis equation which says Transmitted power and Transmitted frequency are directly proportional.

What is duplex spacing?

Duplex distance/spacing is the distance between the uplink and downlink frequencies


What type of utp cable is used to connect a host to a router for programming purposes?

There are several different cables that you can use for this process. They include a cross over cable or an uplink.


True or False Broadband cable is a symmetrical technology?

False. You probably have figured it out already, but video signal (dubbed CATV or Cable TV) was previously the only thing traveling through the cable coax you use today to transport IP data and video data. As a result, the downlink is going to be much higher than the uplink due to the bandwidth of the signals traveling through the coax. With that in mind, Cable Broadband remains asymmetrical.


In GSM which frequency uplink or downlink is greater?

The main reason of selecting a lower frequency for up-link channel in GSM is because of free space path loss. The more is the frequency the more is the loss. As mobile phones, being a battery driven device, have limitation in terms of power we should always look for lower path loss. Whereas BTS antennas can transmit the signal (in down-link channel) with a comparatively high power, which will compensate the path loss. And that is why it is chosen to have lower frequency for up-link and higher frequency for down-link in GSM standards. The same theory applies in almost all type of radio communication. NOTE: Frequency and power are independent of each other. For example you can control the transmission power of BTS antenna, which still transmits in the same frequency.

How satellite communication is different from communication relay?

For communication satellites the range is much higher than that of communication relay. Communication Satellite can cover up to several thousands of kilometers. For communication relay, the uplink and the downlink frequency is the same. But for communication satellites the uplink and the downlink frequencies are different in order to avoid interference.


Why downlink is greter than uplink?

The downlink is greater than the uplink on most internet connects due to overall demand for bandwidth. Downloading takes up a majority of internet usage and connections are optimized for it.
