One of Taiwan's islands, Taiping Island, where I never been to, and it is my first time to know where it is exactly. 😅 Taiping Island is a Taiwan-controlled island, 1,600 kilometers southwest of Kaohsiung Taiwan, hosting ~ 200 coastguard personnel. It is for military and maritime search and rescue also as supply depot. The internet and communication were not advanced as imagined. However this week, it is installed with the MEO terminal equipment. Total transmission bandwidth available to personnel on the island can now reach 25 Mbps, representing an approximate 3.9-fold increase in communication efficiency compared to before. Satcom improve the world more than we can imagine. #satcom #LEO #MEO #maritimecommunications #remotedcommunications #microwave #mmWave UMT (Universal Microwave Technology, Inc.)

Airbus has been awarded an 18-year contract by the UK Ministry of Defence of Defence (MOD) to deliver next-generation satellite modems for the Skynet military satellite communications (milsatcom) system. The new Future Protected Modem Type-A (FPMA) will replace the existing Paradigm Modem System and will support both the operational Skynet 5 satellites and the upcoming Skynet 6A satellite. The FPMA modem, designed, developed, and manufactured in the UK, will introduce enhanced capabilities for secure and resilient military communications. The advanced Software-Defined Radio (SDR) system supports multiple waveforms and enables secure internet protocol (IP) communications across commonly used frequency bands, including X-band. The FPMA modem has been developed to address evolving operational requirements. It includes features to counter sophisticated threats and is designed for use in maritime and ground-based environments. Richard Budd, Vice-President of Space Digital Secure Connectivity at Airbus, noted: “This capability allows Airbus to continue to play a critical role in the provision of safe, secure, resilient and sovereign satellite communications capability for the UK, especially relevant in the current and dynamic operating environment.” Find out more: https://lnkd.in/dYjTeez7 #Airbus #UK #space #communications #SATCOM #Skynet #defence #industry #military #Europe #technology
