   6. Determine the average angular velocity of a geostationary satellite. The distance from the satellite to a station is 42164 km. and radius of earth is approximately 6370 km. Find Geo co’s and sub co’s for 30°NL.

3. Answer the any two parts of the following : 2x10=20

   --- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

   1. What is look-angle? Explain look angles determine the distance.

   2. Explain the linkage system in satellite sub-systems power supply system.

   3. An earth station antenna steered in the direction of a geosynchronous satellite has a gain of 62dB at 20GHz. The details of each block, each block measures 0.75m by 0.75m. Earth station is located at latitude 50°N. Surface and air temperature indicate bright sky noise temperature as high as 35°K.

   4. Explain what is meant by transponder and what are its functions? What are the different type of transponders use in communication?

   5. What is inter-satellite communication?

   --- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

   6. How to design a link involving a different uplink and downlink frequency? Also, how the noise figures influence the overall link. If the ratio of Ts/Tn are particularly small in a link, how does one modify the relation 2 Ts/Tn = 1? The satellite period of satellite is 600 sds.
