GEO- GEOSTATIONARY EARTH ORBIT
LEO- LOW EARTH ORBIT
MEO- MEDIUM EARTH ORBIT
HEO- HIGHLY EARTH ORBIT
GEOSTATIONARY EARTH ORBIT
A circular
orbit
positioned approximately 35,900 km (22,258 mi) above
earth's equator and having a period of the same duration and direction as
the rotation of the earth. An object in this
orbit
will appear stationary
relative to the rotating earth.
Advantages of GEO satellite
Receivers and senders can use fixed antenna positions, no
adjusting is needed. GEOs are ideal for TV and radio
broadcasting.
Geostationary satellites have a 24 hour view of a particular
area. GEOs typically do not need handover due to the large
footprints.
GEOs don't exhibit any Doppler shift because the relative
movement is zero.
Disadvantages of GEO satellite
These satellites can't be used for small
mobile phones.
Transferring a GEO into orbit is very
expensive.
LOW EARTH ORBIT
Leo (low earth orbit) at about 500-1500km above the earth’s.
Additionally, LEO systems try to ensure a high elevation for every spot
on earth to provide a high quality communication link. Each LEO
satellite will only be visible from the earth for about ten minutes
Advantages of LEO satellite
A LEO satellite smaller area of coverage is less of a waste of
bandwidth.
Smaller footprints of LEOs allow for better frequency.
GEOs don't exhibit any Doppler shift because the relative
movement is zero.
Disadvantages of GEO satellite
The problem is the need for many
satellites if global coverage is to be reached.
High complexity.
MEDIUM EARTH ORBIT
A MEO satellite situates in orbit somewhere between 6,000 km
to 40,000 km above the earth's surface. Using orbits around
10,000km, the system only requires a dozen satellites which is
more than a GEO system, but much less than a LEO system
Advantages of MEO satellite
MEO satellites have a larger coverage area than LEO.
Visible for much longer periods GEOs between 2 to 8 hours.
Disadvantages of GEO satellite
Larger distance to the earth, delay increases to
about 70-80 ms.
The satellites need higher transmit power and
special antennas for smaller footprints
HIGH EARTH ORBIT
HEO is one of the non-circular orbit of the four
types. It operates in an eppiptical move which is
similar to GEO with maximum altitude and LEO
with minimum altitude
Advantages of HEO satellite
The coverage can be done of high latitude locations
Fewwer satelites can be required
Disadvantages of GEO satellite
Longer signal delays
