TUTORIAL 5 Bent 3163 2 20112012

1) Kepler's Laws describe the motion of planets and satellites in orbit and differentiate between sidereal time, the apparent motion of fixed stars, and sidereal day, the time it takes Earth to rotate once relative to the fixed stars. 2) Key terms related to orbits include: apogee is the point farthest from Earth, perigee is the closest point, inclination is the tilt of the orbit plane, prograde orbit revolves in the same direction as Earth's rotation, and retrograde orbit revolves in the opposite direction. 3) Satellite orbits are classified and circular orbit radius is calculated given the period. Satellite parameters like semi-major axis and apogee/perig

BENT 3163 TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM ENGINEERING

TUTORIAL 5 1. 2. 3. Define and explain Keplers Laws. Differentiate between sidereal time and sidereal day. Explain the following terms: a) apogee b) perigee c) inclination d) prograde orbit e) retrograde orbit Give the classification of satellite orbits. Differentiate between azimuth and elevation angle. Calculate the radius of circular orbit for which the period is 1 day. An example of NASA satellite parameters is provided in Table 5.1. Calculate: a) the semimajor axis for the satellite. b) the apogee and perigee heights. Table 5.1 1 0.0011501 14.23304826
