From communication to precision farming, different types of satellites are tailored to different needs. Their orbital heights also vary from mission to mission.
Types of SatellitesSatellites are categorized based on their function, orbit, and operational purpose. The main types include following.Communication Satellites: Used for telecommunication, broadcasting, internet services, and more. Examples: Intelsat, Eutelsat. Weather Satellites: Monitor atmospheric ...
The user segment comprises the GPS receiver, which receives the signals from the GPS satellites and determines how far away it is from each satellite. Mainly this segment is used for the U.S military, missile guidance systems, civilian applications for GPS in almost every field. Most of the ...
wireless networks, and satellite communications. They receive incoming signals, amplify them, and retransmit them to their destination. These transponders are used to extend the range and improve the quality of the communication signal.
Different types of heating elements are present in these heaters with nickel alloy as the best to use. Many different types of heaters are present such as air heaters, duct heaters, foil heaters, etc. All these types differ in their performance and applications. Electric heaters are good as ...
Temporal resolution refers to the frequency of coverage of a geographic location, usually by a class of satellite sensor platforms. It is determined by number of satellite overpasses, orbital mechanics, and the agility of the sensor platform. For satellites that point vertically down at the ...

Introduction From daily life applications to military applications and from toys to satellites, robotics is extensive. In industrial applications and automation, ...
Satellite communication:This type of telecommunication involves the use of artificial satellites orbiting the Earth to transmit and receive signals for communication. Satellite communication is often used for long-distance communication or in areas where there is no access to other communication networks. ...
The balloon was estimated to be flying as high as 60,000 feet above ground, which puts it at about ten times closer than the lowest Earth-orbiting satellites [17]. China asserted that the balloon was merely a weather balloon. The US tried to open lines of communication with Chinese ...
