7.university Question Paper

The document discusses topics related to satellite communication systems. It contains 15 multiple choice questions covering topics such as frequency bands used for satellite services, Kepler's laws of planetary motion, momentum wheel stabilization, geostationary satellites, transponder input back off, carrier to noise ratio calculations, limitations of FDMA satellite access, pre-assigned vs. demand-assigned TDMA, and applications of satellites. The document also contains longer questions requiring derivations of orbital elements, look angles, system noise temperature effects, functioning of SPADE systems, TDMA burst structure, and compression standards used in satellite applications.
