Satellite communication uses artificial satellites to provide communication links between various points on Earth. The three main kinds of communication services that satellites provide are: telecommunications, broadcasting, and data communications.
 

Satellites communicate by using radio waves to send signals to the antennas on the Earth. The antennas then capture those signals and process the information coming from those signals.
