Results for tag: "Medium Earth Orbit Satellite"

The Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) Satellite market is a subset of the satellite communications industry. It is composed of satellites that orbit the Earth at an altitude of approximately 8,000 to 12,000 kilometers. These satellites are used for a variety of applications, including voice and data communications, navigation, and broadcasting. MEO satellites are particularly well-suited for providing global coverage, as they are able to provide coverage to a large area of the Earth's surface. MEO satellites are typically more expensive to launch and operate than their Low Earth Orbit (LEO) counterparts, but they offer a number of advantages, such as higher data rates and longer transmission times. Additionally, MEO satellites are less prone to interference from other satellites, making them more reliable for communications. Some of the major players in the MEO Satellite market include Intelsat, SES, Telesat, Eutelsat, and Inmarsat. These companies provide a variety of services, including satellite television, broadband internet, and mobile communications. Show Less Read more
