Satellites are launched into space to provide various services like communications, surveillance, telemetry, remote sensing, etc. They are designed specifically as per their intended applications. Depending on the type of application, satellites are classified as navigation satellites, communications satellites, reconnaissance satellites, and remote sensing satellites. Satellites are also classified as low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, Sunsynchronous orbit satellites, and geosynchronous equatorial orbit (GEO) satellites, according to the orbit they are in.
