Overview is a comprehensive
presentation by author Mark Long,
of the basic technical concepts of satellite TV, ranging from the
satellites overhead to the systems hardware down on the ground.
Related technologies such as encryption, compression, VSATs for business,
broadband systems for consumers and two-way transportable terminals for
disaster relief applications are also
covered.
Our Satellite TV Technology Overview DVD is an information-intensive
program targeted at enterprises, corporations, educational institutions, and
government agencies that need to bring their staff, partners and customers
up to speed on a wide range of satellite technologies.

Author, technical trainer and consultant, Mark Long, gets right to
the heart of the matter, beginning with basic technical principles and then
progressing through each area of concern.
Important space segment considerations- such as satellite payloads,
frequency bands, power levels, coverage beams and station keeping—are
described along with corresponding earth segment considerations dealing with
satellite antennas, feedhorns, LN Bs, analog and digital receiver/decoders,
encryption and digital video compression, potential problem sources and
component integration.
Satellite
TV Technology Overview is a general introduction
to all aspects of satellite audio and video technology, concentrating on
technical matters which cut across the spectrum of basic C-band, Ku-band,
DBS (tiny dishes), and video compression. When combined with our Satellite Installations DVD, the audience obtains
a complete short course covering the specific concerns of the satellite
technician, installer and repairman. What’s more, these two DVDs provide the
background and theory needed before anyone can pick up the tools and go to
work!

-
The Satellite
TV Technology Overview
DVD was designed to be part of a
complete course of instruction on the
technical aspects of satellite
communications. It should be used with our Satellite
Installations videotape to touch upon all
aspects of the technology.
Makes a great package for Voc/Tech schools.
Ideal for training industry technicians and
installers, too!
