GSAT-6 is the twenty fifth geostationary communication satellite of India built by ISRO. GSAT-6A satellite provides communication through S-band payload with five sport beam covering whole India for user links and C-band with one beam . The antenna which is used in this project is of 6 m diameter. this antenna is utilized for five beam over the Indian main land . The sport beams exploit the frequency reuse scheme to increase frequency spectrum utilization efficiently.
Indian Space Research Organization successfully launched the GSAT-6A That would provide mobile communication facilities , using its heavy rocket GSLV-F08. Indian Space Research Organisation chairman K.Sivan said , " This is the 6th successful launch of GSLV with indigenous cryogenic engine. The GSAT-6A satellite was with indigenous cryogenic engine. The GSAT-6A satellite was placed in its designated orbit precisely. The GSAT-6A will complement GSAT-6 launched earlier. The two satellite will provide platform for advanced technologies for point to point communication".

He said the GSLV rocket had major improvements to enhanced its performance. The induction of high -thrust vikas engine enhances the performance capacity of the second stage by around six %
Chairman K.Sivan said, The rocket has been fitted with electro-mechanical actuation system in the place of electro-hydraulic actuation system, adding that the electro-mechanical actuation system was made with ISRO developed space grade lithium-ion cells.
Purpose of GSAT-6A:-
The purpose of the satellite is to provide mobile communication applications in S-band in five sport beams and C-band in one beam during its 10-year life span. The satellite will join its brother in orbit and the S-band satellite's 2.5 GHz band ,which is used for 4G Transmission is going to be very crucial for telecom giants.
