Satellites are typically used for everything from TV to broadband, emergency services, navigation (GPS etc.), scientific research and various other things.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a> states that changing spectrum requirements&#8217; could be driven by an increasing demand for consumer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\">satellite<\/a> broadband, the desire for greater resolution in space science imaging data or by catering for a wider array of public sector needs.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously our focus here is more on the broadband side, particularly with both the EU and UK governments looking to increasingly utilise <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\">Satellite<\/a> as a universal solution for delivering superfast Internet connectivity. It&#8217;s already deemed a quick-fix for basic broadband, but catering for even faster connectivity is much tougher given the tricky capacity limits (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2015\/05\/satellite-might-not-be-the-best-fix-for-uk-and-eu-superfast-broadband.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>). Equally there&#8217;s always the possibility that demand for certain Satellite services might decline.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a> also has to consider the need for more spectrum to improve Mobile Broadband (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/3g\">3G<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a>) connectivity, particularly with future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a> (due to arrive around 2020) services looking to harness significantly higher frequency spectrum bands (i.e. above 6GHz). Ofcom recently identified a range of frequencies\u2019 for this between <strong>6GHz<\/strong> and <strong>100GHz<\/strong> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2015\/04\/ofcom-identifies-candidate-spectrum-for-future-5g-mobile-broadband.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>By comparison modern <strong>Ka-band<\/strong> Satellite broadband spacecraft, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/eutelsat\" target=\"_blank\">Eutelsat<\/a>&#8217;s <strong>KA-SAT<\/strong> or Avanti&#8217;s <strong>HYLAS 1<\/strong>, tend to harness spectrum between the 26.5-40GHz range and <strong>Ku-band&#8217;s<\/strong> neighbouring 12-18GHz. In particular KA-SAT is one of the biggest around and operates 82 spotbeams, each of which can harness a 237MHz wide transponder allowing a data bit rate throughput of 475Mbit\/s per spot (the spacecraft\u2019s total capacity is around 90Gbps).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Ofcom&#8217;s Hopes for More Efficient Use of Satellite Spectrum<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Improvements to satellite antenna beam focusing technologies. These would enable a satellite to use smaller beams so that frequency bands can be re-used through geographical discrimination, thereby increasing the capacity of the satellite (for example the use of high throughput satellites);<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 New transmitter and receiver technologies and standards that could enable better use of spectrum. These include innovative and more spectrally efficient waveforms, better compression techniques and techniques to filter out unwanted signals;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Increasing the efficiency by which satellite networks share spectrum resources with other users (e.g. terrestrial applications);<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Changes to satellite network parameters, such as the minimum diameter of the transmitting earth station or limits on the power flux density radiated towards other satellites, that could reduce the orbital separation between GSO satellites;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Greater utilisation of existing available orbital slots through better co-ordination between satellite networks. This may lead to a higher proportion of actual satellites deployed compared to the total number of satellites filed with the ITU, some of which may be just \u201cpaper-satellites\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The regulators consultation will therefore seek to establish which Satellite applications could need more spectrum in the future and equally where they might be able to extract some for use by mobile operators or other services. The scope and complexity of this consideration means that Ofcom&#8217;s consultation will run until <strong>13th August 2015<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Kingdom&#8217;s telecoms regulator has today signalled the start of yet another strategic review, which this time will examine the radio spectrum use of space-based science and satellite communication services.
