Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

The owner of a communication satellite is usually required to keep the spacecraft on station at its assigned place in the geosynchronous orbit with an accuracy of ____ degree.

A	0.1
B	1.0
C	2.0
D	0.5

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -A typical satellite link involves the transmission or uplinking of a signal from an Earth station to a satellite. The satellite then receives and amplifies the signal and retransmits it back to Earth, where it is received and reamplified by Earth stations and terminals.

Detailed explanation-2: -In a geostationary satellite orbit (GSO), there is negligible molecular drag and satellites are designed for a seven-year life, with new-generation satellites aiming for ten years.

Detailed explanation-3: -Need for Satellite Communication Ground wave propagation and skywave propagation are the two ways communication takes place for a certain distance. The maximum distance covered by them is 1500 km, which was overcome by the introduction of satellite communication.
