Some customers may also choose to use both services simultaneously in the future through hybrid packages we plan to offer. With Global Xpress we also intend to pre-sell some of the capacity, as most Fixed Satellite operators do today. In the fi rst demonstration of this we have signed Boeing as a distributor with a signifi cant commitment for capacity on the Inmarsat-5 (‘I-5’) constellation representing 10% of the planned income in the fi rst fi ve years of operations. Of course, we remain well-positioned to continue growing our core L-band franchise as well. With three generations of satellite constellations in operation, another one currently being built – Alphasat, which will operate in the L-band spectrum – we continue to invest for the future here as well.

  • Technical Details of the Elliott 152 and 153
    Appendix 1 Technical Details of the Elliott 152 and 153 Introduction The Elliott 152 computer was part of the Admiralty’s MRS5 (medium range system 5) naval gunnery project, described in Chap. 2. The Elliott 153 computer, also known as the D/F (direction-finding) computer, was built for GCHQ and the Admiralty as described in Chap. 3. The information in this appendix is intended to supplement the overall descriptions of the machines as given in Chaps. 2 and 3. A1.1 The Elliott 152 Work on the MRS5 contract at Borehamwood began in October 1946 and was essen- tially finished in 1950. Novel target-tracking radar was at the heart of the project, the radar being synchronized to the computer’s clock. In his enthusiasm for perfecting the radar technology, John Coales seems to have spent little time on what we would now call an overall systems design. When Harry Carpenter joined the staff of the Computing Division at Borehamwood on 1 January 1949, he recalls that nobody had yet defined the way in which the control program, running on the 152 computer, would interface with guns and radar. Furthermore, nobody yet appeared to be working on the computational algorithms necessary for three-dimensional trajectory predic- tion. As for the guns that the MRS5 system was intended to control, not even the basic ballistics parameters seemed to be known with any accuracy at Borehamwood [1, 2]. A1.1.1 Communication and Data-Rate The physical separation, between radar in the Borehamwood car park and digital computer in the laboratory, necessitated an interconnecting cable of about 150 m in length.

  • GEC Computers Ltd
    V1 January 2015 GEC Computers Ltd. Origins. In 1968 the real-time computing interests of AEI, Elliott-Automation, English Electric, Marconi and GEC, were consolidated into a single company [ref. 1]. It traded initially as Marconi Elliott Computer Systems Ltd (MECS) and then, after 1971, as GEC Computers Ltd. English Electric obtained the non-computing products and the mainframe data processing products were transferred to ICT/ICL. MECS, and GEC Computers, were for many years based at Borehamwood, though the specialist aerospace computing activities were soon transferred to Marconi-Elliott Avionics Systems Ltd. at Rochester. Initially, the range of MECS computers was inherited from Marconi and Elliott-Automation and comprised the MYRIAD series, M2100 series (a small-scale 16-bit multiprocessor for real-time control]), and the 900 series (see below). About 50% of the applications for these computers were described as ‘military’. The other 50% was made up roughly equally of the following applications areas: Industrial, Laboratory, Marine, Education, Traffic control, Communications, Medical. The GEC 900 series of computers [refs. 2- 4], though first introduced in 1961, had a life extending into the 1980s with machines such as the 920ATC. By then developments had for several years been based firmly at Rochester, under various titles such as GEC-Marconi Avionics Ltd. and eventually BAE Systems. The 900 series is described elsewhere, in the Mainframes section of the Our Computer Heritage website. [ref. 2]. The GEC 2000 and 4000 families. By 1970 GEC Computers Ltd. was working at the Computer Research Laboratory (CRL), Borehamwood, on three new computer ranges. These were known internally as Alpha, Beta, and Gamma.
