Jcsat-13 & Vinasat-2
A DUAL LAUNCH FOR JAPAN AND VIETNAM Arianespace will orbit a direct broadcast and a communications satellite on its second Ariane 5 launch of the year: JCSAT-13 for the Japanese operator SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation, and VINASAT-2 for Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group (VNPT), within the scope of a turnkey contract with American manufacturer Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems (LMCSS). Both satellites were built by Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems. The choice of Arianespace by leading space communications operators and manufacturers is clear international recognition of the company’s excellence in launch services. Based on its proven reliability and availability, Arianespace continues to confirm its position as the world’s benchmark launch system. Ariane 5 is the only commercial satellite launcher now on the market capable of simultaneously launching two payloads and handling a complete range of missions, from launches of commercial satellites into geostationary orbit, to dedicated launches into special orbits. Over the last 23 years, since the launch of JCSAT-1 in 1989, Arianespace and SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation have developed an exceptional relationship. JCSAT-13 will be the 27th satellite for a Japanese operator to use the European launcher. JCSAT-13 was built by Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems using an A2100 AX platform. Weighing 4,528 kg at launch, it will be positioned at 124 degrees East longitude on a geostationary orbit. It offers a design life exceeding 15 years. The satellite is fitted with 44 Ku-band transponders and will provide direct TV broadcast links to all of Japan as a replacement satellite for JCSAT-4A and will also meet satellite demands in Southeast Asia.

News Release April 2, 2007 JSAT Corporation JSAT Reaches Agreement to Own Transponders on Intelsat 15 Satellite In a continuation of cooperation among two of the world’s prominent satellite operators, JSAT Corporation (President and CEO: Kiyoshi Isozaki; Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; “JSAT”) today announced an agreement with Intelsat (Headquarters: Bermuda), the world’s largest provider of fixed satellite communications services, to purchase a dedicated payload of five transponders on a new Intelsat satellite scheduled to enter service in 2009. A successor spacecraft to Intelsat 709, Intelsat 15 will operate in an orbital position of 85° East Longitude. Following its launch in early 2009, Intelsat 15 (IS-15) primarily will provide services to the Asia-Pacific, Indian Ocean and Middle East regions. The satellite will be equipped with 22 Ku-band transponders, five of which JSAT will own and operate. JSAT’s transponders will be used for direct broadband communications between Japan and the coastal nations throughout Asia-Pacific and the Indian Ocean regions. The Ku-band services on IS-15 will offer JSAT’s customers two-way communications with data transfer speeds of 6Mbps, providing land and sea communications, including allowing ships to send navigation and other operating information to their land-based headquarters.

End-Of-Life Deorbit Service with a Pulsed Laser Onboard a Small Satellite
End-of-Life Deorbit Service with a Pulsed Laser Onboard a Small Satellite Tadanori Fukushima(1) (2), Daisuke Hirata(1) (2), Kazuma Adachi(1) (2), Yuki Itaya(1) (2) , Jun Yamada(1) Katsuhiko Tsuno(2), Takayo Ogawa(2), Norihito Saito(2), Michio Sakashita(2), Satoshi Wada(2), Toshikazu Ebisuzaki(2) (1) SKY Perfect JSAT, 1-8-1 Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, [email protected] (2) RIKEN, 2-1 Hirosawa, Wako-shi, Saitama, Japan, [email protected] ABSTRACT To improve the post mission disposal (PMD) rate of the satellites and provide future active debris removal (ADR), SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation has begun designing a brand-new end-of-life (EOL) deorbit service satellite to remove nonfunctional satellite targets from orbit. The Corporation aims to launch a demonstration satellite in 2024 and begin service in 2026, in collaboration with RIKEN and other partners. A service satellite with a laser system (less than 50 W of output power) emits a focused laser beam to the target to cause laser ablation. The orbit and attitude (including rotational status) of the target can be changed sufficiently by the reaction force of the plasma/gas ejected from the target surface. In this paper, the results of a conceptual study and several advantages of the laser ablation method over conventional active methods for the removal of nonfunctional satellites are described. Since Sputnik 1 was launched in 1957, more than 10,000 1 Introduction satellites have been launched into outer space [1] and SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation has begun designing a about 4,000 of them are operational at present.
