  • Ka-Band Satellite Consumer Triple-Play and Professional Video Services
    Ka-Band Satellite Consumer Triple-Play and Professional Video Services Guillaume Benoit, Hector Fenech, Stefano Pezzana, and Alessia Tomatis Eutelsat, 70 rue Balard, 75015 Paris, France +33 1 53 98 47 47 {gbenoit,hfenech,spezzana,atomatis}@eutelsat.fr Abstract. This article presents Eutelsat European Ka-band implementation of the broadband ToowayTM service and its evolution through a dedicated Ka-band exclusive satellite (KA-SAT). It also explains Eutelsat’s choice in se- lecting the Ka-band for interactive services, broadcast video and IPTV ser- vices, demonstrating the optimal consumer service synergy between existing Ku-band and new Ka-band services. KA-SAT satellite is not focusing only on consumer triple-play services. In- deed, Eutelsat strategy consists in offering also professional video and data services in Ka-band (video distribution, video contribution, e-cinema, file transport) sharing the same transparent satellite bandwidth and the same ground segment infrastructure. For those professional video applications the last content processing (SVC) and satellite transport (DVB-S2 ACM) techniques are under deployment and this paper will present simulation results and link budgets estimations for a large number of future commercial applications. 1 Introduction Eutelsat operates 25 satellites in the geostationary arc from 15°W to 70.5°E offering a variety of services from corporate networks to broadcasting. The HOT BIRD™ con- stellation at 13°E constitutes the prime position for DTH (Direct to Home) and cable broadcasting, utilizing the full Ku-band spectrum from 10.70 GHz to 12.75 GHz. There are 102 transponders delivering about 1400 TV channels. The HOT BIRD™ service area reaches some 120 million satellite and cable households.

  • HD-TC8 from HORIZON New Feature-Packed Signal Analyzer Specially Designed for the New Ka-Band Internet-Via-Satellite Services
    TEST REPORT Ka-Band Satellite Signal Analyzer HD-TC8 from HORIZON New feature-packed signal analyzer specially designed for the new Ka-band Internet-via-Satellite services While it is possible with a little effort to find Ku-band satellites using a normal satellite receiver and using it to adjust the antenna, this method has its limits when dealing with Internet- via-Satellite services in the Ka-band. Even if you were to use a Ka-band LNB you would not be successfull: an Internet-via- Satellite service such as Tooway, available from the HOTBIRD 6 satellite, uses a different transmission mode. Enter the new Horizon meter HD-TC8 which has the ability to directly lock on to those Turbo Coded services. 10-11/2009 Horizon HD-TC8 Ideal multirange signal analyzer for the Ka and Ku-bands, optimized for Turbo Coded Data Transmissions 20 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 10-11/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com ■Ka-band specialist Ron Eberson adjusting the Tooway dish using the HORIZON HD-TC8. Have no fear; the Tooway dish is standing properly. Polarization is set manually on Tooway systems. The LNB has a fixed position within the antenna assembly which requires the whole antenna to be rotated for correct polarization adjustment. The Tooway hardware is supplied with the correct feed (Tria) assembly for the required receive and transmit paths. TELE-satellite World www.TELE-satellite.com/...

Neither view is relevant today. Although the competitive nature of technological achievement and the wish to explore space will never end, the most important role space serves today is as critical infrastructure for the world. This report, Bringing Space Down to Earth, demonstrates how important space is in our daily lives, particularly in times of crisis.

  • Troubleshooting Guide
    Troubleshooting Guide © Satellite Solutions Worldwide Ltd 2013 Before you start troubleshooting: Power down the Tooway modem for 60 seconds. Connect a computer directly (via Ethernet cable) to the Tooway modem Power the Tooway modem and wait 5 minutes. Power the computer connected to the Tooway modem Troubleshooting Procedure: 1. What do the lights on the Tooway Modem mean? If the modem is successfully connected to the Tooway Service you would see all four lights lit on the modem. (If data is transferred over the service you’ll notice the bottom 3 lights (RX, TX, Network/Computer) flickering intermittently. What do the lights on the modem mean? If there are not lights on the modem – check the power connection. If only the Power light is lit and the RX light is flashing once a second please continue to “No 2” in this guide. If the top 3 lights (Power, RX, TX) are lit but the Network/Computer light is not, check the following: o Ethernet cable is connected from the modem to the network/computer. o Computer/Network device is powered. If all 4 lights are flashing all together, please continue to “No 2” in this guide. © Satellite Solutions Worldwide Ltd 2013 2. Diagnosing the Tooway modem Before this procedure is attempted, make sure you followed the steps outlined on page 1 “Before you start troubleshooting”. Open your internet browser (Preferably Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari) In the URL address bar type in: 192.168.100.1 which will then open the Basic Status page of the modem. If the modem is correctly connected to the Tooway service is should look similar to the image, with the Modem, IFL and TRIA all with Green ticks.
