S A B O T A GE


Just recently watched back Star Trek Beyond (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2660888/), interested with its filler song when Capt. Kirk and his crews in USS Franklin fight swarm of drones near Starbase Yorktown;



Captain James T. Kirk: Let's make some noise!

Good song which sing by Beastie Boys which title is Sabotage and released on January 1994 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabotage_(song))



With its appearance in Star Trek Beyond, it made this song played two times already on Star Trek francise. This song first appearance was at Star Trek (2009), played when little James Kirk drive an old car.



And, we know why Capt. James T Kirk said this;

Kirk: [hears song "Sabotage" blaring, aimed to destroy Krall's attacking swarm] It's a good choice.

Satellite Communication - Part 4 (CPI)

Cross Polar Isolation (CPI) In installation and pointing/peaking antenna, Orthogonal Mode Transducer (OMT) must be set to be as precise as possible to get the best CPI value. above is picture of OMT Feed assembly include with BUC and LNB The minimum value for CPI is 30 dB (better will be good) in Linier Polarized Antennas. The reason is for our receive (Rx)-side as not to get interferenced (distrubed) by other (polarity) Down-Link users, therefore our transmit (Tx) shoild as well not interfere other users that operates at 90 deg (Orthogonal) Polarization. Note : In LH/RH Circular Polarizations, usually CPI of 27dB (=AR of 1.09) is acceptable enough. picture above is careless/miss-aligned OMT setting

Satellite Communication : Transmission Bands

A satellite link is a radio link between a transmitting earth station and receiving earth station through a communications satellite. A satellite link consists of one uplink and one downlink; the satellite electronics (i.e., the transponder) will remap the uplink  frequency to the downlink frequency. The transmission channel of a satellite system is a radio channel using a direct-wave approach, operating in at specific RF bands within the overall electromagnetic spectrum as seen below : The table below shown some key of physical parameters of relevance to satellite communication,  The frequency of operation is in the super high frequency (SHF) range (3-30 GHz). Regulation and practice dictate the frequency of operation, the channel bandwidth, and the bandwidth of the subchannels within the larger channel. Different frequencies are used for the uplink and for the downlink. Frequencies above about 30 MHz can pass through the ionosphere and

Satellite Communication - Part 1

In this occasion, i want to share about Satellite communication. First, please look at the picture below, Planets of our Solar System God created Moon as our Earth satellite. In order to broading our communication, people tend to use artificial satellite for communication. Based on orbits, these are the type of satellites : Low Earth Orbit (LEO)              Height : 750-2500 Km,       Period : 2 - 2.5 hours Medium Earth Orbit (MEO)       Height : 7500-10000 Km,   Period : 4.5 - 6 hours High Earth Orbit (HEO)             Height : 15000-20000 Km, Period : 11-12 hours Geo-Stationary Orbit (GSO)      Height : 36000 Km,             Period : 24 hours Incline Orbit Satellite (drifting > 0.1 deg. N-S and E-W) Polar (mostly very eliptical) orbit satellite "in this purpose of satellite communication, I will focus in Geo-Stationary Orbit (GSO)" If we talk about GSO, we must mention this name, Arthur C. Clarke, a Science-Fictionist, which wrote : "a Satellite
