List of satellites in geosynchronous orbit

List of satellites in geosynchronous orbit

This is a list of satellites in geosynchronous orbit. These satellites are commonly used for communication purposes, such as radio and television networks, backhaul, and direct broadcast. Traditional global navigation systems do not use geosynchronous satellites, but some SBAS navigation satellites do. A number ofweather satellites are also present in geosynchronous orbits. Not included in the list below are several more classified military geosynchronous satellites, such as PAN. Listings…

New Star of Network—O3b Network

O3b refers to “other 3 billion”, which is right the number of people without reliable, high-speed Internet connections in the world. Compared to the traditional GEO satellites, O3b Networks operates MEO satellite constellations, which are 8000KM away from the earth, much closer than GEO satellites. With the lower altitude, it reduces the latency greatly, shortens…
