Fiber in SpaceGround-breaking approach to deliver internet through Space to
the skies and over the seas
The Comsats Business is Changing and Changing Fast!
Demand is growing all over the world
Useful Frequencies are scarce
Find new ways to deliver the capacity to the customers
Ka-band brings huge capacity
Small footprint beams are multiplied to cover large areasaccompanied by very large transmission power
HTS – High Throughput Satellites
11
A traditional broad footprint Next-generation HTSOptimised for broadcastingA signal received simultaneously by an unlimited amount of users over a widespread area, covering at least a continent
Optimised for IP applicationsMultiple spot-beam architecture, allowing for high frequencies to be re-used in order to generate a considerable increase in bandwidth
30 million households in Europe have less than 2 Mbps broadband13 million with dial-up Internet access
KA-SAT, THE ‘80 GB/S GORILLA’ THE BIGGEST HTS IN THE SKY TODAY

Capacity For HTS is More Than Ten- Fold A Game Changer ?
35 x more capacity than traditional satellites

Different Types of Broadband Services
Summary
Communication satellite are the backbone of the global television distribution with an annual growth of more than 5%
Broadband (High rate internet stream) has a lot of geographical limitations and does not reach most of humanity
No more available frequencies together with beneficial characteristics of the Ka-band gives the business a new approach for broadband delivery
Traditional wide-beam satellite and HTS multi-spotbeams are complementary: two models for two types of applications
