EARTH STATION
• Earth station communicates to the satellite. Any system (combination of satellite antenna, amplification, conversion, and reception electronics) that can either transmit to or receive signals from orbiting satellites.
• The ground station that receives (downlink) and sends (uplink) signals to and from communication satellites

UNITS OF EARTH STATION
• TRANSMISSION( Uplink) An uplink is the link from a ground station up to a
satellite.
• RECEPTION(Downlink) A downlink is the link from a satellite down to one or
more ground stations or receivers

UPLINK
• An uplink is a satellite antenna and transmitting system which can be used to send signals up to orbiting communications satellites.
• Uplink refers to the function of a transmission signal being sent from a ground station to a satellite.
• The signal path from an earth station to a satellite.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Digital data is sent to the modulator which takes the data and converts it into a modulated signal in the IF range (70-140 MHz).
2. The IF is piped to an "up converter"which mixes the IF with a higher frequency to produce a final frequency which carries the modulated data.
3. Noise is removed from the signal via band pass filter and then amplified.

4. The final cleaned signal is transmitted down the wave guide to the dish.
5. The feed horn at the focal point of the dish emits the high frequency radio transmission, which the dish focuses into a directional transmission at the satellite.

THE DISH
• A satellite dish is just a special kind of antenna designed to focus on a specific broadcast source .
• The standard dish consists of a parabolic (bowl-shaped) surface and a central feed horn.

Types of dish
There are two types of dish:-
Transmitting dish
Receiving dish
