# PUT /udl/transponder/{id}

`PUT /udl/transponder/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://unifieddatalibrary.com`
- URL: `https://unifieddatalibrary.com/udl/transponder/{id}`
- Auth: none declared

Service operation to update a single Transponder. A specific role is required to perform this service operation. Please contact the UDL team for assistance. A Comm payload may have multiple transponders and a transponder may have many channels.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Request body

- TransponderIngest: A transponder receives and transmits radio signals at a prescribed frequency range. A communications satellite's transponder is the series of interconnected units that form a communications channel between the receiving and the transmitting antennas. It is mainly used in satellite communication to transfer the received signals.
  - `id` string: Unique identifier of the record, auto-generated by the system.
  - `idComm` string, required: ID of the parent Comm object for this transponder.
  - `name` string: Optional name of the transponder.
  - `classificationMarking` string, required: Classification marking of the data in IC/CAPCO Portion-marked format.
  - `nid` string: Optional external network id as provided data source.
  - `tid` string: Optional external transponder id as provided data source.
  - `ttf` number, double: Transponder Translation Factor. This is the frequency difference between the uplink received by a satellite, and the downlink transmitted back. It varies satellite to satellite dependent on the mission.
  - `symbolRate` number, double: Symbol rate is the number of symbol changes, waveform changes, or signaling events, across the transmission medium per time unit using a digitally modulated signal or a line code. Also measured in Hz.
  - `fec` integer: Forward error correction, e.g. 0=Auto, 1 = 1/2, 2 = 2/3, 3 = 3/4, 4 = 5/6, 5 = 7/8, 6 = 8/9, 7 = 3/5, 8 = 4/5, 9 = 9/10, 15 = None.
  - `modulation` string: Transponder modulation, e.g. Auto, QPSK, 8PSK.
  - `format` string: Format.
  - `system` string: Transponder system, e.g. DVB-S, DVB-S2.
  - `source` string, required: Source of the data.
  - `origin` string: Originating system or organization which produced the data, if different from the source. The origin may be different than the source if the source was a mediating system which forwarded the data on behalf of the origin system. If null, the source may be assumed to be the origin.
  - `origNetwork` string: The originating source network on which this record was created, auto-populated by the system.
  - `dataMode` 'REAL' | 'TEST' | 'SIMULATED' | 'EXERCISE', required: Indicator of whether the data is REAL, TEST, EXERCISE, or SIMULATED data: REAL: Data collected or produced that pertains to real-world objects, events, and analysis. TEST: Specific datasets used to evaluate compliance with specifications and requirements, and for validating technical, functional, and performance characteristics. EXERCISE: Data pertaining to a government or military exercise. The data may include both real and simulated data. SIMULATED: Synthetic data generated by a model to mimic real-world datasets.
  - `createdAt` string, date-time: Time the row was created in the database, auto-populated by the system.
  - `createdBy` string: Application user who created the row in the database, auto-populated by the system.
