Link Budget Analysis

Satellite link budget analysis and path propagation loss

Satellite Communications Toolbox provides link budget analysis capabilities and RF propagation models.

  • Use Satellite Link Budget Analyzer app to analyze, design, and visualize a link budget for satellite communications.

  • Model RF propagation paths to calculate atmospheric loss for a signal.
