• The path a Satellite follows around a planet is
defined as an orbit.
Polar Orbit: In polar orbit the satellite moves from pole to pole
and the inclination is equal to 90 degrees.
Inclined Orbit: All orbits other than polar orbit and equatorial
orbit are called inclined orbit.

Advantages of NGSO
• Advantages:
– Simple ground station tracking.
• Disadvantages:
– Transmission delay of the order of 250 msec.
– No polar coverage
• Satellite orbits in terms of the orbital height:
