• ESA’s ‘Space for 5G’ Strategic Programme Line – Learn from the European Space Agency’s efforts to facilitate adoption of 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), a prime example of how strategic testing underpins success in sophisticated new space projects and technological advancements.
• Testing Fundamentals for New Space – A 101 Guide: Unlock a comprehensive understanding of how the right testing approach supports the rapid pace of new space development. Discuss continuous integration/test/deploy cycles, the emergence of new test tools, and their crucial role in ensuring robustness and adaptability in rapidly evolving space environments.
• Synergizing Diverse Satellite Constellations through Testing: See how bringing satellite links into the lab for testing is pivotal in managing the intricacies of LEO, MEO, GEO, and HEO constellations, ensuring optimal performance and reliability in multi-constellation networks.

Phased Array Advancements for Ground Stations | Presented by ThinKom

Watch the Webinar

With constellations in non-geostationary orbit (NGSO) growing at an astounding pace, disruptive technology is needed to deliver dramatic improvements in ground station performance and scalability. This dynamic webinar will explore how phased arrays bring unlimited options with multi-beam, multi-orbit performance to today’s burgeoning networks.

In this webinar, you will:
* Meet the inventors of the field-proven VICTS technology upon which the solution is built and understand its unique beam-forming advantages
* Learn how phased array technology overcomes the limitations of parabolic dish gateways, including: high power demands, line-of-sight blockages and repoint time, plus footprint, transport and scalability challenges
* Explore the full range of applications, markets and missions for which the technology is beneficial
* Assess the performance and cost of next-gen ground station solutions in comparison with parabolic dish technology
*Hear from first movers, KSAT, about their ambitious network expansion plans, and how ThinKom’s phased array technology is helping them scale up at unprecedented levels

Using Electro-Optical Imagery and AI Analytics in the Maritime Domain | Presented by Planet

Watch the Webinar

Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) is the understanding of anything associated with a sea, ocean, or other navigable waterway that could impact security, safety, the economy, or the marine environment. Electro-optical imagery has much to offer for tackling MDA by corroborating other sources of information, like Automatic Identification System (AIS) signals, and providing unique visual data to characterize maritime activities. PlanetScope’s broad area, daily ocean coverage is in a class of its own, and combined with superior data analytics from SynMax, can elevate MDA for commercial and government users.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

* Detect and classify vessels in electro-optical imagery, and compare with AIS and other sources of information
* Find dark ship activities and AIS spoofing over broad areas and into the past by taking advantage of years of archive imagery
* Monitor ports, coastlines, and high-interest open water areas
* Capture proof of ship-to-ship transfers, illegal fishing activities, and more

How to Get More From Your MSS Satellites and Spectrum | Presented by TTP

Watch the Webinar

Demand has risen for data via satellite thanks to new and growing commercial services such as UAVs, direct to device, ISR and IoT. Satellites and spectrum are expensive, meaning SNOs might struggle to meet this new demand without vast investment. However, there are cheaper solutions that provide opportunities to significantly increase the capacity of existing networks. In this webinar Lewis Davies will discuss how SNOs can get the most out of what they have by using the right technology. He will cover:

• How to carve up the allocated spectrum to satellite beams and individual terminals more flexibly. This flexibility, with suitable scheduling, allows more to be squeezed into the same space.
• How technology from the cellular industry can be directly used and adapted by SNOs, and what differences you need to be aware of when applying it to satellite networks.
• Route to establishing business plans for SNOs with possible ROI from increased capacity.
• How to identify the value of different types of increased capacity to operators.


How Does a Webinar Work?

The audio is delivered to your location over the telephone or your computer speakers. The Power-Point presentations are presented over the Internet and are available to print out before the program. This is like a talk-radio program with visuals on the Web. You need Real Player or Windows Media Player installed on your computer. If you do not have either, please follow the instructions below to download and install them. Or if you prefer, a phone for the audio and an Internet connection to let you watch the slides and other information on the Web will suffice. No other downloads or special hardware needed – a dial-up connection will work fine.
