Section- B
(4xS=20)
Q2) DevelopFRIIS equationrelatedto satellitecommunication.Expressthe equation
in decibelrelation.

Q3) Asatellitetransponderwith 30 MHz bandwidthrelaysa televisionsignalusing


FM modulation.The downlink EIRP of satelliteis 32 dBW. Assumingthe
receiving earth stationhas a systemnoise temperatureof 100 K and usesa
parabolic-dishantennahaving gainof 52 dB, calculateCArlreceived.

Q4) \Nhy are VSATs so popular?List their applications.

Q5) Draw and explain simplified block diagram of communicationsatellite


transponder. ,

Q6) Assumethat you want to analyzethe overall performanceof a satellite relay


systemthat usesa "bent pipe" transponder.Let (ClN)"" denotethe carrier-to-
noise ratio (CNR) for the transponderas evaluatedin the IF band of the
satellitetransponder.Let (ClN)* denotethe IF CNR ratio at the downlink
receivingground stationwhen the satelliteis sendinga perfect(noise-free)
signal.Showthat the operatingCNR ratio at the IF ofreceiving groundstation,
(CN)ou, is given bV [(CA{)ou]-' : [(C/N)""]-' + [(CAi)d,,]-r.

Section- C
(2x10=20)
