Chapter 10, Problem 4P
A geostationary satellite is at a distance of 40,000 km from a ground receiving station. The satellite transmitting antenna is a circular aperture with a 1 m diameter, and the ground station uses a parabolic dish antenna with an effective diameter of 20 cm. If the satellite transmits 1 kW of power at 12 GHz and the ground receiver is characterized by a system noise temperature of 1,000 K, what would be the signal-to-noise ratio of a received TV signal with a bandwidth of 6 MHz? The antennas and the atmosphere may be assumed lossless.
