  2. Sun outage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_outage

    At these times, the apparent path of the Sun across the sky takes it directly behind the line of sight between an Earth station and a satellite. The Sun radiates strongly across the entire spectrum, including the microwave frequencies used to communicate with satellites (C band, K u band, and K a band), so the Sun swamps the signal from the ...

  4. Satellite television - Wikipedia

    The advantage of this orbit is that the satellite's orbital period equals the rotation rate of the Earth, so the satellite appears at a fixed position in the sky. Thus the satellite dish antenna which receives the signal can be aimed permanently at the location of the satellite and does not have to track a moving satellite.

  8. Rain fade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_fade

    Rain fade can be caused by precipitation at the uplink or downlink location. It does not need to be raining at a location for it to be affected by rain fade, as the signal may pass through precipitation many miles away, especially if the satellite dish has a low look angle. From 5% to 20% of rain fade or satellite signal attenuation may also be ...
