Detailed explanation-1: -Examples of navigation satellites are IRNSS 1A, BeiDou/BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, etc. 2) Communication satellites: Their basic function is to relay and amplify radio telecommunications signals using a transponder.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are two different types of satellites – natural and man-made. Examples of natural satellites are the Earth and Moon. The Earth rotates around the Sun and the Moon rotates around the Earth. A man-made satellite is a machine that is launched into space and orbits around a body in space.
Detailed explanation-3: -For all-weather navigation, the satellite would radiate a continuous radio signal. The observer, equipped with an electronic sextant and an indicator of the vertical, would then be able to determine his position from radio observations of the satellite.
Detailed explanation-4: -Bhaskara-I launched on 07.06. 1979 was the first experimental remote sensing satellite. Bhaskara-II launched on 20.11. 1981 was the second experimental remote sensing satellite similar to Bhaskara-1.
