-Antenna Gain-
The antenna gain is defined as the ratio of the power per unit solid angle received/radiated by the ant
enna in a given direction to the power per unit solid angle received/radiated by an isotropic anten
na supplied with the same power.

Earth station from the geostationary orbit
• Satellite
– Height h above the equator
– Sub-satellite point, longitude ΦS
• Earth station
– Latitude E, longitude ΦE
– Relative longitude satellite = (ΦE – ΦS) = ΦES

Exercise (2) – Carrier Transmission
Budget
• Given
– Uplink frequency = 14GHz
– Earth station
