چکیده

There are specific sectors of the economy that can benefit from satellite-based tele-education. Areas, such as maritime and agriculture, share common needs for both broadband connectivity at remote geographical areas that cannot otherwise be covered, and for innovative content for tele-education purposes. Furthermore, each area has special requirements with regard to the type of content to be delivered. In this paper we propose a set of architectural designs and case scenarios that will realise such interactive end-to-end education systems based on satellite communications. Services requirements in this setting are also identified and discussed.

Integration of TETRA with Satellite Networks: A Contribution to the IMT-A Vision

The paper addresses the integration architecture (I-concept) between a terrestrial technology—TETRA (TErrestrial Trunked Radio)—and satellite systems. This approach, that enhances and harmonises the features of both technologies, could provide an interesting contribution to the effectiveness of the International Mobile Telecommunications-Advanced (IMT-A) and, hence, to the 4G vision. TETRA can ...
