geosynchronous orbit

… The orbital period T of an elliptical orbit (including a circular orbit) is given by, and this period, which corresponds to the first cosmic velocity, is about 84 minutes. In particular, a circular orbit with a period T of 1 day is called a geosynchronous orbit, and among them, an orbit with an inclination of 0 degrees is usually called a geostationary orbit (Figure 2). In this way, satellite orbits are classified into circular orbits, (long) elliptical orbits, parabolic orbits, and hyperbolic orbits based on their shape, and are also called low-altitude orbits, geostationary orbits, etc. depending on the altitude and period of the orbit. …
