What is characteristic of an inverting linear satellite transponder?

AnswerSignal position and sideband sense are inverted between uplink and downlink.

An inverting transponder reverses the spectral relationship: a signal near one end of the uplink passband appears near the opposite end of the downlink, and USB/LSB sense swaps.
