Satellite Network

A Satellite Network is a communication system that uses satellites to transmit and receive data, signals, or messages across large distances. These networks typically consist of multiple satellites orbiting the Earth, ground stations, and user terminals. Satellite networks facilitate various services, including satellite television, internet access, telephony, and remote sensing. They are particularly valuable in areas where terrestrial communication infrastructure is limited or absent, as they can provide connectivity in remote or underserved regions. The satellites can be in different orbits, such as geostationary, low Earth orbit (LEO), or medium Earth orbit (MEO), depending on the specific communication requirements and applications. Satellite networks enable global coverage and are essential for applications such as disaster recovery, maritime communication, and military operations.
