Abstract: |
In this chapter, the most common geostationary orbit is analyzed. Antenna orientation, trajectory parameters and geometry are determined, along with visibility limit analysis. Near GEO orbits are also analyzed. The corrections to the orbit of geostationary satellites due to various effects are considered. Then, the phenomenon of the eclipse that causes momentary losses in the power supply of the satellites is studied. In particular, the eclipses of the Sun from the Earth and from the Moon are studied and illustrated, as well as the effects of the interruption of power supply to the satellite. Finally, the characteristics of launch trajectories and launch vehicles are studied, as well as the methods of positioning in the geostationary orbit.
