Satellite TV's future

Satellite TV's future

Are you interested in getting satellite TV? Read this article and find out just exactly what satellite TV's future holds for everyone.

What would Satellite TV's future be like? That may seem to be a difficult question, but extrapolating what we know about the past into the future and some educated guesses, we may very well end up with a reasonable picture of what the future of satellite TV looks like. Take into consideration the following:

1. Receive and Transmit

2. Equipment Size and Costs

3. Satellite Capacity and Coverage

4. New Technologies

Satellite TV's future include the following:

1. Receive and Transmit:  What would be possible if you could not only receive, but also transmit in the same bandwidth as you receive? That would change the whole world, while it is possible now to use the satellite for Internet purposes (but in a very simple and inefficient way). You receive via satellite, but transmit via phone, therefore the upload capacity is completely limited by the dial up connection.

The idea of being able to transmit to a satellite from your home is new and will probably one day be reality. At the moment companies can use satellites to connect offices all over the country via satellite, but  because bandwidth is limited or very expensive, they are also limited in what they can do.

2. Equipment Size and Costs:  Your Dish Network or Satellite TV equipment at home may seem small, the reason for this is because it only has to receive the signal. Transmitting requires different equipment, not so much in the house, but on the roof at the antenna there is need for a relative bigger transmitter. Also these are still pretty expensive and for domestic use just not affordable.

In the future this should change, equipment will get smaller, and cheaper. Eventually when satellites are able to transmit much more data than now, having 10.000.000 transmitters on the ground won't be a problem.

3. Satellite Capacity and Coverage:  This will always be the bottle neck of satellites; how much data can they transmit and how small an area can they cover? A satellite has multiple dishes and each dish can cover a part of the earth; small parts like just one state or big parts like the whole United States.

In the future satellites will be able to relay even more data, and therefore cover much smaller areas. Having full capacity available for just a small area means higher bandwidth available for a small amount of people. Especially in urban areas it will be great to have a satellite covering a whole neighborhood.

 

4. New Technologies:  As technology evolves, new technologies may open up possibilities that were never heard of before. Imagine watching a movie in 3D, you're sitting on your couch but watching a show as if you are part of the audience when the TV show was recorded. You're not really having a TV at home anymore, but a 3D entertainment room.

In the future Satellite TV will evolve so much, that it is hard to imagine what our lives will be like in 30, or even just 20 years from now. Take this into consideration - 50 years ago, there was nothing in space that was made by humans. Now there are even satellite graveyards (obsolete satellites are parked there).

The possibilities of satellite TV technology are growing faster every year, what took 10 years to develop 30 years ago is now done in only 2 years. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
