    Prof. R. T. Patil

    Satellite Transmission Process
    GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) OPERATIONAL SATELLITES

    • The Global Positioning System (GPS), is a popular


    satellite navigation system. GPS satellites broadcasts
    precise timing signals by radio, allowing any GPS
    receiver to accurately determine its location
    (longitude, latitude, and altitude) in any weather, day
    or night, anywhere on Earth.

    Orbital Mechanics
    • We know that the path of satellite revolving around the earth
    is known as orbit. This path can be represented with
    mathematical notations.
    • Orbital mechanics is the study of the motion of the satellites
    that are present in orbits.
    Orbital Elements
    Orbital Parameters

    ra = a + ae = a (1+ e) rp = a - ae = a (1- e)

    e= ra – rp / ra + rp and e<1. a = (ra + rp) / 2

    b= (ra rp)1/2
    Inclination

    • The angle between orbital plane and earth’s


    equatorial plane is known as inclination.
    Types of orbits
    Orbital Equations

    Forces acting on Satellite

    (1) The Centripetal force (F1) acting on satellite due to earth


    can be written as

    (2) Pulling force from the sun and the moon due to their
    gravitational forces

    Orbital Velocity

    (3) Equate Centripetal force (F1) and Centrifugal force (F2).


    Types of Satellite orbits
    • Circular or elliptical orbit
    _Circular with centre at the earth’s
    centre
    _Elliptical at the earth’s centre
    • Plane of orbits
    _Equatorial orbits
    _Polar orbits
    _Other orbits
    Altitude of Satellites?

    How far from the earth & time it takes signals to travel -
    • Geostationary orbit (GEO) Satellite
    • Medium Earth orbit (MEO) Satellite
    • Low earth orbit (LEO) Satellite
    • We know that satellite revolves around the earth, which is
    similar to the earth revolves around the sun. So, the principles
    which are applied to earth and its movement around the sun
    are also applicable to satellite and its movement around the
    earth.
    • Many scientists have given different types of theories from
    early times. But, only Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) was one
    of the most accepted scientist in describing the principle of a
    satellite that moves around the earth.
    • Kepler formulated three laws that changed the whole satellite
    communication theory and observations. These are popularly
    known as Kepler’s laws. These are helpful to visualize the
    motion through space.
    Kepler’s First Law
    Kepler’s Second Law
    Kepler’s Third Law
    Kepler’s third law states that, the square of the periodic time of
    an elliptical orbit is proportional to the cube of its semi major
    axis length.
    A few Questions
    (Try to find the answers yourself)
    • The time period of a satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T.
    Calculate the period of another satellite in a circular orbit of
    radius 9R. (Solution: Using Keplers Laws 27T)
