Calculate time delay for a signal from earth to a satelite in geostationary orbit and back by using simple astrodynamics time delay calculator.
Formula:
where,
c = Speed of light (299792458 m/s)
R = Earth' s radius (6.378 m)
r = The orbital radius (the distance from the centre of the Earth)
ฯ = Latitude
ฮt = Time taken for a signal to send from earth to the satellite and back again
