Transponder<br />

A transponder is a frequency converter which<br />

receives TV and radio signals broadcast from<br />

the earth, converts them and the rebroadcasts<br />

them to the earth at a different frequency.<br />

A satellite has several transponders.<br />

Analogue transponders transmit only one TV<br />

channel and possibly multiple radio channels<br />

on a single transmission frequency.<br />

Digital transponders simultaneously transmit<br />

several TV and several radio programmes<br />

on a transmission frequency. If a programme<br />

provider is broadcasting several TV channels<br />

via a digital transponder, we refer to the<br />

provider's channel package. The terms “digital<br />

transponder” and “channel package” have<br />

the same meaning.<br />
