The internet is the backbone of today’s digital world. A cobweb of fiber optics/wireless towers have been spread all over the globe for internet access in every nook and corner of the globe. Though fiber optics is a very costly affair, major industries are still opting for fiber network instead of satellite communication. Satellites can be placed in three different orbits for connectivity. These are LEO, MEO, and GEO. Despite so much advancement in the space technologies, satellite broadband is still in its infancy stage. This paper reviews why fiber optics have been the choice of technology giants instead of satellite communications. This paper also discusses various difficulties in implementation of satellite broadband and the implementation of the Starlink project for satellite broadband. This paper also sheds light on how the SPT (Squeeze Pack and Transfer) compression algorithm helps in improving internet implementation using satellite communication.
