Abstract

Satellite communication is a critical component of global connectivity, enabling data transmission across vast distances for applications such as telecommunications, navigation, and broadcasting. However, signal degradation due to atmospheric interference, scattering, and attenuation presents a significant challenge to maintaining reliable communication. This study explores the role of quantum entanglement in mitigating signal loss and improving encryption in satellite communication systems. By leveraging quantum key distribution (QKD) and quantum error correction techniques, secure and efficient data transmission can be achieved. Various strategies, including adaptive beamforming, higher frequency bands, satellite relays, and real-time atmospheric monitoring, are examined to enhance communication reliability. The integration of quantum communication with advanced signal processing techniques demonstrates potential improvements in data integrity, reduced latency, and enhanced security. Furthermore, the study investigates the impact of deploying higher frequency bands and optimizing transmission through real-time atmospheric monitoring to counteract signal attenuation. The findings highlight the transformative potential of quantum technology in modern satellite networks, offering a pathway to the next generation of secure and efficient communication. While challenges such as atmospheric disturbances and technical complexities remain, continued advancements in quantum technologies and real-time optimization strategies hold promise for overcoming these obstacles. Future research should focus on refining quantum protocols and addressing implementation challenges to fully realize the benefits of quantum entanglement in satellite communication systems.
