“computers” or “ice cream.” While these may be important‚ they are definitely not the most important. By far‚ satellites are the most important objects today. Most everything‚ including smartphones and computers‚ are present today because of satellites and have capabilities such as Wi-Fi and 4G because of the role satellites play. Even Socrates‚ who lived centuries before the first satellite‚ realized the importance of a view from space when he said‚ "Man must rise above the Earth…to the top of the

Internet Infrastructure: Undersea Cables When thinking about where the internet lives‚ it would be plausible to think it lies among high-tech satellites communicating around the world simultaneously – resembling something of a digital cloud. Instead‚ the internet does not resemble a cloud‚ but instead resides in a physical infrastructure in hundreds of cables snaking underground and along the bottom of the sea. In fact‚ overseas satellite links currently account for only roughly 2 percent of international

Can Long distance relationship Survive? How? We can rarely hear teens talking about long distance relationships‚ but does it really survive? how? Other people think it wont because of the fact that the couple is away from each other and that the other one might not be contented and will find someone to fill his/her longings. But some think it will work if they do really love each other and they will wait until the time comes for to meet or meet again. I am also one of them who believe that it survives

History of Satellite Communications The first idea of satellite communication came from an article in 1945 named Wireless World‚ where Author C. Clarke described the use of manned satellites in 24 hour orbits to distribute television programs. However‚ the first person to carefully evaluate the technical and financial aspects of such a venture was John R. Pierce of Bell Telephone Laboratories (Whalen‚ n.d.). In a 1954 speech and 1955 article‚ Pierce described the usefulness of a communications

INTRODUCTION For three decades‚ satellite communications have been used for public switched telephone network (PSTN) and video broadcasting applications. However‚ with daily technology advancements made in society and the requirement for global data connectivity‚ satellites are increasingly being used to provide data communication links at all data rates ranging from 64 Kbps to 155 Mbps (Buchsbaum). Wireless technology allows data to be sent out into space to a satellite and back to earth to provide

Satellite communication‚ in telecommunications‚ is the use of artificial satellites to provide communication links between various points on Earth. Satellite communications play a vital role in the global telecommunications system. Approximately 2‚000 artificial satellites orbiting Earth relay analog and digital signals carrying voice‚ video‚ and data to and from one or many locations worldwide. Satellite communication has two main components: the ground segment‚ which consists of fixed or mobile

SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS - AN OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION The outer space has always fascinated people on the earth and communication through space evolved as an offshoot of ideas for space travel. The earliest idea of using artificial satellites for communications is found in a science fiction Brick Moon by Edward Evert Hale‚ published in 1869-70. While the early fictional accounts of satellite and space communications bear little resemblance to the technology as it exists
