ABOUT INMARSAT

Communication of 3Cs: - Convenient - Connective - Competitive

Established in 1979; internally owned by a consortium of 85 member countries

Headquarters in LondonINMARSAT Group Holdings Ltd.International Mobile Satellite Organization (IMSO)

Customers: Merchant Shipping, Fisheries, Airlines, Disaster Management, Land Transport, Oil & Gas, News & Media, Business executives etc.

INMARSAT SATELLITES

The entire INMARSAT network operates through a constellation of 9 geo-stationary satellites.

Geo-Stationary Satellite: Orbits in an equatorial plane at exactly the same angular velocity as that of earth’s rotational speed; appears to be fixed at a specific point in the sky when viewed from the earth.

(Distance from surface of the Earth = 35,784 Kms)

Advantage:

INMARSAT users need not to switch satellites throughout the world.

MARINE COMMUNICATIONS

CREW CALLING: Voice & E-mail services to reach out home & family.

FLEET TRACKING:

Vessel operators can use INMARSAT terminals equipped with integrated GPS functionality for automatic tracking & vessel position reporting.

VESSEL MANAGEMENT: Modern commercial vessels

multi-million dollar floating assets; require operation & effective management through

efficient Maintenance.


TELEMEDICINE: Seriously- ill persons can get access to Doctor on land for diagnosis/expert analysis

SECURITY & SAFETY: Ships fitted with INMARSAT terminal can access security information such as piracy alerts to access to covert security alarms against piracy.


NAVIGATION: Weather reports & chart updates are delivered via INMARSAT to vessels regularly.


GLOBAL MARITIME DISTRESS & SAFETY SYSTEM (GMDSS)

International system to ensure alerting of rescue authorities in the event of a marine distress

Cargo ships of 300 gross tons & upwards and passenger ships on international voyages must be shipped with GMDSS standard equipment.

SEA ZONES / AREASArea A1: within VHF range; Carry VHF & INMARSATArea A2: Beyond A1 but within MF range; Carry VHF, MF &

INMARSATArea A3: Beyond A1 & A2 but within coverage of geo-stationary

maritime communication satellites (roughly 82 deg North & 82 deg South);Carry INMARSAT, VHF & MF

SAFETY COMMUNICATIONSCNS/ATM Strategy

Controller-Pilot Data Link Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) Controller/Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC)

Satellite Navigation Services currently provided by US GPS & Russian Glonass Military Systems

and future addition will be Europe’s Civil System, Galileo. The Ground Earth Stations monitor the GPS signals & send the resulting

information to one or more Master Control Stations. The differential GPS information modulated into a GPS-like signal and up-linked to the navigation transponders, which broadcast them to aviation users.

Air Traffic Organization:

1. CNS/ATM : ICAO, US Federal Aviation

2. Administration : UK National Air Traffic

3. Services : EUROCONTROL, Nav. Canada, Air Services Australia

Data AccelerationSwift-64 can offer up to FOUR simultaneous 64 Kbps channels and can be “bonded” to produce 256 Kbps which can be boosted to more than 0.5 Mbps by data acceleration technologies.

Voice MultiplexingV100 multiplexer from Vocality International UK allows up to EIGHT simultaneous phone conversations on Swift- 64 Mobile ISDN (64 Kbps). It uses data compression & dynamic bandwidth allocation to slice single Swift-64 channel into multiple voice channels.
