What else can I help you with?
Transmitting a signal from a ground station to a satellite is called?
uplinking
What is an atomic watch?
A watch that is updated automatically from an outside source (usually satellite or signal from a central hub).
The temple in which the Babylonian worshipped were?
do math and stop tryna cheat
Is cable coaxial the same as satellite coaxial?
Most times they are the same but a satellite signal needs to be carried by RG6 cable it is a heavier gauge wire then say RG59. Regular or analog cable signal is sometimes carried by RG59 but digital cable should use RG6. +++ The primary specification is not conductor size but the impedance and capacitance of the cable.
Why does radio and satellite reception deteriorate when the sun goes down?
All satellite equipment, whether it be for communications, TV or radio, operates on its own specific radio frequency to communicate with the satellite. Light also gives off a radio frequency. "White light" which is what the sun gives out, is a full spectrum frequency. This means that every radio frequency there is, the sun is emmiting. So for you, when the sun goes down, the satellite which your radio equipment gets its signal from is probably in the path of the sun. Since the sun's rays are so powerful it inteferes with the satellites signal to your radio equipment. Let me know if I am right on this, you have XM radio. I am a satellite communications systems operator/maintainer in the US Army. Just curious because the XM satellites are geostationary which means that they are constantly in the same place in the sky in relation to the ground. You probably wouldn't have this problem with Sirius radio because their satellites have a highly elliptical orbit which means that there are multiple satellites moving over the western hemisphere where there are always two moving across the skies over North America. Since there are two always in the sky in different locations, if one was in the suns path, your radio would receive its signal from the other. Just as a little satellite humor, we sometimes have problems with our equipment when we try to locate the satellite in the sky. If the satellite is near the sun, our dish sometimes locks onto the sun. A couple of times I've seen when the sun crosses the path of our signal, the dish will start following the sun and we lose communications.
What is the speed of a satellite signal?
The speed of a satellite signal is approximately the speed of light, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second. This means that signals transmitted from a satellite to Earth or vice versa travel at this high speed.
Why No signal from satellite?
There are many reasons why you may have no signal from your satellite. Your service could have been disconnected for example.
Why does satellite radio fade out?
The satellite signal can be blocked by various things.
What causes the sporadic loss of satellite signal?
The satellite signal uses microwave radiation and water absorbs microwaves. So when it rains or there are thick clouds the signal from the satellite gets absorbed and if enough is lost by this process your Dish Network receiver will lose signal
What are telecommunication links?
In satellite communication, up link refers to the signal traveling up to the satellite while down link refers to the signal coming from the satellite down to earth.
What is the purpose of a satellite antenna?
A satellite antenna has one very important purpose. It is designed to allow a home to receive a satellite signal, which then allows users to receive a television signal.
How does gpss work?
It sends a signal directly to the satellite and the satellite pinpoints the location of it.
What is satellite footprint?
A satellite footprint refers to the area on Earth's surface where the satellite signal is received. It is the geographical coverage range of the satellite's signal transmission. The footprint size and shape depend on factors like satellite altitude, beam characteristics, and antenna design.
Does snow knock out satellites signal?
Inclement weather in the form of heavy rain, snow, or thick cloud cover can affect your satellite signal - it is known as rain fade. The satellite signal is fragmented as it attempts to pass through the heavy rain drops causing signal loss or pixelation (breaking up). This occurs with all satellite signal.
What carries a signal from a satellite to a dish?
the alternator
What describes a signal with a frequency of 20GHz in a satellite radio transmissions?
A downlink signal; a Ka Band signal
How do satellites and TV signals work?
Satellite TV Providers transmits the signals through their satellite dish converting it first from digital signals to analog signals. These signals which were converted will be transmitted to the satellite. The satellite will then transmit the analog signals per request of the satellite dish connected to the receiver of the subscriber. Once signals are received, it will be converted back to digital signals which can be read by the receiver and be displayed to the television.
