AIM:-To establish an Audio-Video satellite link between Transmitter and Receiver.
APPARATUS REQUIRED: Uplink Transmitter, Downlink Receiver, dish antennas, Transponder,
monitor and connecting cables.
BRIEF THEORY: - The Uplink transmitter sends signals at an uplink frequency, which is higher
than downlink frequency to avoid the interference. The quality of signal is much improved with active
satellite specially when distances between transmitter and receiver are considerable.

PROCEDURE:-
I Connect the satelite uplink transmitter to AC mains.
2 Switch on the transmitter by mains switch and frequency display will come on..
3 The transmitting frequency can be selected by up-down switch. The frequency can be changed from
1200-1250-1300 MHz.
4 Connect XI antenna to uplink transmitter with BNC -BNC cable.
5 The transmitter on-off switch will switch on-off the transmission.
6 Set the o/p gain of uplink transmitter to maximum.
7 Set the o/p gain of uplink transmitter to maximum.
8 Place downlink receiver at a distance of 5-7 m.
9 Connect the downlink receiver to the AC mains and switch it on by mains switch.
10 The downlink receiver frequency can be changed from 1100-1150-1200 MHz.
11 The downlink receiver also has tuning potentiometer, which can be used to tune any frequency
from 950- 1500 MHz.
11 Keep the tuning POT fully anticlockwise.
13 The downlink receiver on-off switch will switch on-off the receiver.
15 Attach R2 antenna to the downlink receiver with BNC-BNC cables.
16 Align both the transmitter and receiver antenna in line.
17 Place a satellite transponder between transmitter and receiver at a distance of 5-7 m.
18 Connect the satellite transponder to the AC mains and switch it on by mains switch.
19 The receiver side of satellite Transponder has an on-off switch, which will switch off the
20 receiver of the satellite. Similarly on-off switch on transmitter side will switch off transmitter of
satellite.
21 Adjust transmitter uplink frequency to 1300 MHz and transponder receiver frequency also to
1300MHz.
22 Keep downlink frequency of Transponder to 1100MHz.
23 Keep the downlink receiver to 1100MHz.
24 Connect the Audio/Video signal at the input socket provided on the Uplink Transmitter, Video at
video input and audio at audio 1 input.
22. Connect TV monitor to the Audio/Video o/p of downlink receiver. Set TV in AV mode.
23. The TV monitor will display video and audio signal that you have connected to uplink transmitter
input.
RESULT: -The monitor display shows that a successful audio and video link has been establish
between Transmitter and Receiver through satellite.
DISCUSSION:
The quality of signal is much improved with active satellite specially when distances between
transmitter and receiver are considerable.
PRECAUTIONS:-
1. Connection should be tight.
2. Switch off power supply after performing the experiment.
