Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) antennas are widely used in satellite communication systems to transmit and receive data. These antennas come in different shapes and sizes, each designed for specific applications. In this article, we will discuss the different types of VSAT antennas, starting with parabolic antennas.
Parabolic antennas are the most common type of VSAT antennas used in satellite communication systems. They are characterized by their large dish-shaped reflectors that focus the incoming signal onto a small feed horn at the center of the dish. The feed horn is connected to a low-noise amplifier (LNA) that amplifies the signal before it is sent to the modem for processing.
