VSAT Full Form Name
Full Form of VSAT :
Very Small Aperture Terminal
VSAT Full Form is Very
Small Aperture Terminal. A very small aperture terminal (VSAT) is a
satellite telecommunication station that receives and transmits data with the
use of the satellite; it serves both home and business users. A VSAT consists
of two parts, a transceiver that is placed outdoors to connect with satellite
and a device that is placed indoors to connect with the transceiver and connect
to PC. A VSAT user needs a box that interfaces between the computer and an
external antenna with a transceiver.
A VSAT transmits narrow and
broadband signals to satellites. The data from the satellites is transmitted to
different hubs in other locations across the world. The hub controls all the
operations of the network. The transceiver sends and receives a signal from a
hub station in a mesh topology or cosmic topology. In order to connect and
communicate with another user each transmission has to go through hub station
which retransmits through satellite using VSAT.
VSAT can handle data, voice and
video signals. VSAT has a number of advantages over other alternatives. In the
case of private application, companies can control their communication system
as and when required. VSAT antennas have a variable range from 30 inches – 48
inches, the data rate range from 56kps to 4mbs. VSAT is widely used for transportable,
on-the-move communications and maritime communications.
VSATs are commonly used to
transmit:
1. Narrowband data: This includes
point of sale transactions like a credit card, RFID data (radio-frequency
identification, data acquisition data, and supervisory control.
2. Broadband data: For satellite
Internet access to remote locations, Video or Voice over Internet Protocol.
The abbreviation VAST has
different full forms. And these VAST full forms are used in different fields.
