Microwaves are used ;- Scientific
- Medical
- Military and Civilian War
- Industrial Applications
- Food - Chemical -Rubber -Textiles
-Plastics - Paper - Ceramic - Cosmetics
It is used in different industry for ;
Cooking Baking Puffing Drying Curing
Evaporating Sterilizing, Moulding … etc.

Advantages of microwave communications over medium
wave/short wave communications
-Microwaves are used in wireless communication to an accommodate increased number
of channels with a high S/N power ratio.
- Bandwidth can be a small fraction of the microwave carrier frequency (fc).
- Using higher fc the overall system bandwidth can be increased.
- More distinct channel can be transmitted at microwave frequency than at much lower
frequencies.
- High resolution radiation beam (narrow) can be generated with relatively smaller size
antennas.
- Noise are negligibly small (e.g. atmospheric noise, man made interferences caused by
electric transient, automobile ignition etc.)
- Since microwaves penetrate ionosphere and any possibility of ground reflected waves
and surface waves suffer heavy attenuation.
- It is a Line of sight (LOS) communication.
Microwave communication systems can be classified as - Terrestrial System -
Satellite System. Dr. Md. Mostafizur Rahman 3

Principles of a Satellite
Satellite Operates the following frequencies ;
- 6/4 GHz - 14/11 GHz - 17/12 GHz
Applications : Long distance telephone traffic, To relay TV signals across oceans and to Provide
national TV cables directly to the home, Internet etc….
Classified by Altitude :• Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite [500 – 2000 km]
• Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) Satellite [5000 – 15000 Km]
• Geostationary (GEO) Satellite [35786 Km]
• Highly Elliptic Orbit (HEO) Satellite

Downlink Signal 4 GHz
Transponder : The stage between the reception of the uplink signal and converted into
downlink frequency and then transmission of that downlink signal to earth is called a
transponder. A satellite commonly contains 12 to 15 transponders having bandwidth with 36
MHZ each. Bangabandhu-1 Satellite have 40 transponder.

Fading : Fading is a phenomenon in which the received signal strength is reduced
or lost due to atmospheric effects and ground reflections.
Types of Fading :
- Absorption fading
- Reflection multipath fading
- Atmospheric multipath fading and
- Sub-refraction fading
