satellite tracking software
GENERAL INFORMATION
tracking software tells you when a satellite is in range. Most
packages provide considerable additional information like:
- the distance between your station and the spacecraft
- the doppler-shift for the mode you specify (which helps you locate
your downlink)
- the heights of the satellite (for elleptical orbits this varies)
- the phase, a number that tells where a satellite is located in its
orbit
- squint angle (a parameter that tells how close to you the satellite
antennas are currently aimed)
- predicted signal levels on the downlink
