Satellite communication involves the use of satellites to transmit and receive signals for various forms of communication, including television, internet, and telephone services. These satellites orbit the Earth and relay information between ground stations, enabling global connectivity.
The technology relies on a network of satellites positioned in geostationary or low Earth orbits. By utilizing radio waves, satellite communication can cover vast distances, making it essential for remote areas where traditional communication infrastructure is lacking. This system plays a crucial role in disaster recovery, military operations, and global broadcasting.
