Slant range is the LOS (line of site ) distance between the earth station and the satellite and it is very important in satellite link calculation .For instance to calculate the pathloss slant range would be used.Furthermore slant range is a means to describe the satellite location above the surface of the earth.

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.

What if the difference between fiber optic and satellite communication?

Satellite versus Fiber Optics communication1- Fiber optics communication is quicker but satellite is slow in communication.2- Fiber Optics communication higher bandwidth but Satellite Lower Bandwidth.3- In case of any fault we can easily repair Fiber Optics but Satellite can not be repair.4- Fiber Optics initial Cast is low but Satellite is very High.5- Many People want to communication during jogging, driving, sailing and flying these all possible in Satellite Communication But Fiber Optics not use for them.6- Fiber Optics is Very costly for long range communication but Satellite is low for long range communication.ByMuhammad ShaoibUniversity of Management and Technology ,Lahore, Pakistan


What is a communications satellite?

Satellite communication is when a signal gets sent to space, bounces off of a satellite, and comes back to Earth. This is a very common source of communication.
