Satellite footprints
also called coverage is the Zone
where the satellite's signals can be received.
Eutelsat
W1
The W1
satellite provides a total of twenty-eight channels, twenty of which
are connected to a fixed Widebeam coverage encompassing Europe, the
Atlantic Islands, North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.
The remaining eight channels are connected to a Steerable coverage,
which is used to address new markets in geographical areas lying
outside of the Widebeam coverage area. The satellite is designed so
that services can be simultaneously provided within both coverages,
providing the possibility for networking between the Widebeam and
another geographical area. EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power)
