Cost Efficiency

Forward Link Forward Link is the communication path carrying traffic from the network or ground side toward the user or remote side. Protocol Frame Relay Frame Relay is a packet-switched wide-area networking technology that used virtual circuits to transport frames across shared carrier networks. Protocol Gain To Noise Temperature Ratio Gain To Noise Temperature Ratio is a receiver performance measure that relates antenna gain to system noise temperature, often expressed as G/T. It describes receive sensitivity by comparing the useful… Concept/Framework Gateway Diversity Gateway Diversity is the use of multiple gateway paths, sites, or providers to reduce dependency on a single gateway point of failure. Concept/Framework Gateway Site Gateway Site is the physical location where gateway equipment, antennas, and supporting infrastructure are installed and operated. Hardware Gateway Teleport Gateway Teleport is a teleport facility specifically used to connect satellite traffic to gateway functions and terrestrial infrastructure. It combines teleport and gateway roles. Hardware GEO GEO is geostationary Earth orbit, an orbital regime where a satellite remains approximately fixed relative to a point on Earth. It supports persistent coverage of a region through orbital mechanics… Concept/Framework Greenfield Deployment Greenfield Deployment is the deployment of a new system in a new environment without needing to integrate with existing legacy infrastructure. Operations Ground Segment Ground Segment is the terrestrial portion of a satellite system, including earth stations, gateways, control infrastructure, and related facilities that form the ground side of the system. Hardware Ground Station Ground Station is a terrestrial facility used to communicate with, track, or control satellites and other spacecraft. It supports telemetry, tracking, and command. Hardware
