Q

Which longitude corresponds to the AOR-E satellite for Inmarsat-C communications?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Inmarsat ocean regions (AOR-E, AOR-W, IOR, POR) and their approximate coverage areas • Relationship between satellite ocean region name and its central longitude • How "E" (East) and "W" (West) designators relate to positive/negative longitudes

💭 Think About

• Which of the listed longitudes would place a geostationary satellite over the Atlantic Ocean on the eastern side (toward Europe/Africa)? • Think about the typical longitudes used for Inmarsat Atlantic Ocean Region – East (AOR‑E) coverage; are they east or west of Greenwich? • Which options clearly fall over the Pacific or central Indian Ocean areas, and can therefore be eliminated for AOR‑E?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that AOR-E means Atlantic Ocean Region – East, serving Europe/Africa side of the Atlantic • Check whether each answer choice longitude lies over the eastern Atlantic or somewhere else (Americas, Indian, Pacific) • Eliminate any longitude that would obviously correspond to AOR-W (western Atlantic) or to Indian/Pacific regions rather than AOR‑E
