Braving the Challenge of Satellite Technologies: National Breakthroughs and Indonesia’s Role in International Forums

چکیده
Recalling the Palapa domestic satellite system, as a breakthrough technology for assessing isolated areas, and triggering business activities. INTELSAT commenced the opening of new horizons for reliable international satellite communication, and Indonesia took a wise decision to join, notwithstanding its economic hardships. Indonesia, had to take crucial decisions during ITU WARC-ORB ‘85 and ’87 in the interest of the global community and its national interest. In cooperation with other Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) operators, Indonesia obtained an endorsement at WRC95 for improving the fragmented MSS bands, and an additional allocation at WRC-2003. Indonesia took part in the ITU sponsored deliberations on GMPCS, and consistently assisted emerging non-geostationary satellite systems, such LEOs and MEOs at WRC forums, for their spectrum allocation. Indonesia is experiencing its initial stage of DTH (Direct-to-home) satellite broadcasts using Broadcast Satellite Services (BSS). More widespread use of terresterial means in Indonesia’s telecommunications scene will cause a shift in the application of satellite technologies.
