LTE satellite broadband product for critical communications
Sasken Technologies Limited has announced the world’s first LTE-technology-based satellite product — designated Mobile Satellite Equipment (MSE).
This innovative LTE-based product enables mission-critical satellite communications during natural disasters such as tsunamis, as well as normal operations. It provides a wide spectrum of services, including emergency calls, voice, fax, messaging, data, and additional functionalities.
As pioneers in the SatCom industry, Sasken has designed, developed, and deployed the MSE hardware and software, revolutionizing the satellite communication industry. The introduction of LTE over mobile satellite equipment brings standard 3GPP services over the satellite infrastructure, transforming the legacy satellite network infrastructure into a standard and interoperable telecom network.
“Sasken continues to break barriers and redefine the boundaries of technological innovation,” said Mr. Rajiv C. Mody, Chairman and Managing Director, Sasken Technologies. “This complex satellite system for high-speed critical communication has been architected from concept and design to commercialization. The team realized the design to make this product sustainable for long-term use in the field which will impact the lives of millions by enabling public-safety satellite communication.”
“This pioneering technology ensures uninterrupted and reliable connectivity even in remote or challenging terrain, and more importantly when other modes of communication fail during natural disasters and calamities,” said Mr. Abhijit Kabra, CEO, Sasken Technologies.
One of the standout features of the MSE LTE over mobile satellite equipment is the integration of a Tracking Antenna unit. With a modernized, resource-efficient, and extensible platform, the MSE provides long-term support for telecommunication services. This cost-effectiveness, combined with increased user capacity, presents satellite telecom operators with new opportunities for market growth.
