TechTerms - The Tech Terms Computer Dictionary. This page contains a technical definiton of Solid State. It explains in computing terminology what Solid State means and is one of many hardware terms in the TechTerms dictionary.
That would get old pretty quick. Satelliteâs latency, or perceived speed is almost 20 times slower than a land based service such as e-vergentâs. This is because the e-vergent signal is traveling a fraction of the miles compared to satellite links.
Propagation Delay. The one constant in calculating latency is the speed of light; everything else is variable. Although we cannot change the speed of light, operators can change the satelliteâs altitude. Not all satellites are in geosynchronous orbit and it is useful to contrast the propagation delay associated with a particular orbital altitude.
