Tewkesbury Satellite Communications (TSC)
Satellite communication systems now provide a wider range of services with ever-increasing functionality, data rates, mobility and security; all at lower costs than ever before. As well as the satellites themselves, these satcom systems demand increasingly complex user terminals, ground stations and test equipment. One example of this is Inmarsat’s BGAN system, which provides 3G services using sophisticated, high-efficiency modulation and channel-coding schemes to provide secure circuit-switched and packet-switched services at rates up to 492kBits/second...
New on the Tools page is a tool for obtaining the angles required for pointing your antenna at your desired satellite. Simply, select the satellite from the drop down list, set your location by entering the town, country or zip/postcode or even by entering the latitude and longitude separated by a comma, then press 'Return'. Drag the map, zoom in and out and move the antenna marker to suit.
