Advantages Of Geostationary Satellites:
- This satellite remains almost stationary in respect to a given earth station.
Consequently expensive tracking equipment is not required at earth stations.
- High altitude geosynchronous satellites can cover a much larger area of the earth than
their LEO satellite counterpart.
- There is no need to switch from one satellite to another as they orbit overhead.
Consequently there are no breaks in transmission because of switching times.
- The effects of Doppler shift are negligible.
