Spot Beam

Refers to a highly focused and concentrated beam of signals emitted by a communication satellite to target a specific geographic region on Earth.

Unlike traditional satellite beams that cover larger areas, spot beams enable the transmission of high-power signals with enhanced precision and efficiency, optimising communication services within the designated coverage area. By directing the transmitted energy to a specific region, spot beams provide concentrated coverage, allowing for increased capacity, improved signal quality, and better overall performance.
