Inter Satellite Link
An Inter Satellite Link is a communication path used for data exchange between satellites, enabling spacecraft to relay information directly in orbit.
Hardware
Interference
Interference is any undesired electromagnetic signal or emission that reduces the performance of a receiver or sensing system. It may be caused by co-channel overlap, adjacent-channel leakage, harmonic content, intermodulation,…
Concept/Framework
Interference Margin
Interference Margin is the headroom a communication link has before interference degrades service below acceptable levels. It is a planning measure used to assess resilience.
Operations
Interlock System
Interlock System is a safety or control system that prevents an action from occurring unless specified conditions are satisfied. It enforces safe sequencing and readiness.
Operations
IP
IP is the Internet Protocol, a network-layer protocol used to address and route packets across interconnected networks. It provides logical delivery between hosts.
Protocol
Jitter
Jitter is the variation in the timing of packet arrival or signal delivery relative to an expected cadence. It is a measure of timing instability in a transport path or…
Concept/Framework
Ka Band
Ka Band is a microwave frequency range used in high-capacity communication systems, commonly employed in satellite and fixed wireless links to support wider bandwidth and higher data throughput.
Hardware
Ku Band
Ku Band is a microwave frequency range used in satellite and broadcast communications that supports directional links at frequencies sensitive to weather effects.
Concept/Framework
Kubernetes
Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform used to deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications. It automates workload scheduling and lifecycle control.
Software
L Band
L Band is a lower microwave frequency range used in communications and navigation systems, valued for propagation characteristics and broad service support.
