How Does Digital Satellite

TV Work?

Satellite programming originates from an “uplink” facility on Earth — the facility receives many signals from different sources, combines the signals digitally and transmits to the satellites. The satellites (22,300 miles above Earth) receive the uplink signal, amplify it and then transmit it back to earth in the Ku fre- quency band. This signal is

concentrated and reflected to the LNBF* located at the “focal point” of the dish. The LNBF amplifies and converts the signal to the 950 to 1450 MHz range. The signal is then

passed through a coaxial cable to the re- ceiver where individual channel selection and processing take place.
