- 4. A communications satellite's transponder is the series of interconnected units that form a communications channel between the receiving and the transmitting antennas. It is mainly used in satellite communication to transfer the received signals
- 5. COMPOSITION OF A TRANSPONDER an input band-limiting device (a input band-pass filter), an input low-noise amplifier (LNA), designed to amplify the (normally very weak, because of the large distances involved) signals received from the Earth station a frequency translator (normally composed of an oscillator and a frequency mixer) used to convert the frequency of the received signal to the frequency required for the transmitted signal, an output band-pass filter a power amplifier (this can be a traveling-wave tube or a solid- state amplifier)

- 9. LNA A low-noise amplifier (LNA) is an electronic amplifier that amplifies a very low-power signal without significantly degrading its signal-to-noise ratio. An amplifier increases the power of both the signal and the noise present at its input. LNAs are designed to minimize additional noise.

ELECTRONIC OSCILLATOR • An electronic oscillator is an electronic circuit that produces a periodic, oscillating electronic signal, often a sine wave or a square wave. • Oscillators convert direct current (DC) from a power supply to an alternating current (AC) signal. • They are widely used in many electronic devices. Common examples of signals generated by oscillators include signals broadcast by radio and television transmitters, clock signals that regulate computers and quartz clocks, and the sounds

Editor's Notes
- In the computer networking, data to be transmitted is the payload, but is almost always encapsulated in some type of a "frame" composed of framing bits and a frame check sequence. Examples are Ethernet frames, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) frames, Fibre Channel frames, and V.42 modem frames.
- The bandwidth available from a satellite depends upon the number of transponders provided by the satellite. Each service (TV, Voice, Internet, radio) requires a different amount of bandwidth for transmission. This is typically known as link budgeting and a network simulator can be used to arrive at the exact value.
- A communication channel or simply channel refers either to a physical transmission medium such as a wire, or to a logical connection over a multiplexed medium such as a radio channel in telecommunications and computer networking. A channel is used to convey an information signal, for example a digital bit stream, from one or several senders (or transmitters) to one or several receivers. A channel has a certain capacity for transmitting information, often measured by its bandwidth in Hz or its data rate in bits per second. Most communication satellites are radio relay stations in orbit and carry dozens of transponders, each with a bandwidth of tens of megahertz. Most transponders operate on a bent pipe (i.e., u-bend) principle, sending back to Earth what goes into the conduit with only amplification and a shift from uplink to downlink frequency. However, some modern satellites use on-board processing, where the signal is demodulated, decoded, re-encoded and modulated aboard the satellite. This type, called a "regenerative" transponder, has many advantages, but is much more complex.
- A band-pass filter (also spelled bandpass) is a device that passes frequencies within a certain range and rejects (attenuates) frequencies outside that range.
- A band-pass filter (also spelled bandpass) is a device that passes frequencies within a certain range and rejects (attenuates) frequencies outside that range.
- A Band Pass filter will pass a particular band of frequency and attenuate the frequencies lesser and greater that the Lower Cut-off frequency and Higher Cut-off frequency.

- An amplifier, electronic amplifier or (informally) amp is an electronic device that can increase the power of a signal (a time-varying voltage or current). An amplifier uses electric power from a power supply to increase the amplitude of a signal. A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power. It is composed of semiconductor material usually with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit. A bipolar junction transistor (bipolar transistor or BJT) is a type of transistor that uses both electron and hole charge carriers. The field-effect transistor (FET) is a transistor that uses an electric field to control the electrical behaviour of the device. FETs are also known as unipolar transistors since they involve single-carrier-type operation. A low noise amplifier is an electronic amplifier which is used in order to amplify possibly weak signals such as those received by an antenna. Low noise amplifiers are usually located very close to the detection device in order to reduce losses in the feed line. A low noise amplifier is a key component placed at the front end of a radio receiver circuit. By using a low noise amplifier, the effect of noise from subsequent stages of the receiving chain is diminished by the gain of the amplifier.

The most common sizes for nominal gain bandwidth are 3 MHz, 4 MHz and 10 MHz.
- Amplifiers need a device to provide gain. In the 1940s, that device was a vacuum tube, but now it is usually a transistor or an integrated circuit. The transistor may be one of many varieties of bipolar transistors or field-effect transistors. In electronics, gain is a measure of the ability of a two-port circuit (often an amplifier) to increase the power or amplitude (the maximum displacement of a periodic wave) of a signal from the input to the output port by adding energy converted from some power supply to the signal.
- Baseband refers to the original frequency range of a transmission signal before it is converted, or modulated, to a different frequency range.

- Oscillators are often characterized by the frequency of their output signal: A low-frequency oscillator (LFO) is an electronic oscillator that generates a frequency below approximately 20 Hz. This term is typically used in the field of audio synthesizers, to distinguish it from an audio frequency oscillator. An audio oscillator produces frequencies in the audio range, about 16 Hz to 20 kHz.[2] An RF oscillator produces signals in the radio frequency (RF) range of about 100 kHz to 100 GHz. Oscillators designed to produce a high-power AC output from a DC supply are usually called inverters. There are two main types of electronic oscillator — the linear or harmonic oscillator and the nonlinear or relaxation oscillator

- In electronics, a mixer, or frequency mixer, is a nonlinear electrical circuit that creates new frequencies from two signals applied to it. Mixers are widely used to shift signals from one frequency range to another, a process known as heterodyning, for convenience in transmission or further signal processing. For example, a key component of a super heterodyne receiver is a mixer used to move received signals to a common intermediate frequency. Frequency mixers are also used to modulate a carrier signal in radio transmitters.
