Satnews Publishers 2013-5-15 http://www.milsatmagazine.com/cgi-bin/display_article.cgi?number=137203670 http://www.milsatmagazine.com/cgi-bin/display_article.cgi?number=137203670 Satcom-On-The-Move (SOTM) offers true broadband communications capabilities for civil and military users. While the ultimate desire is to use satellite Earth stations, which are as small and light as possible, several trade-offs affect the ultimate coverage areas and communications data rates these systems can provide. This article considers several of the factors that drive the selection of a specific SOTM Earth terminal configuration.

Frequently, innovation creates evolutionary change in industries and technologies in the form of minor improvements, cost reductions and increased quality.

Backhaul of traffic from multiple devices—phones, cameras, computers, and equipment control systems—to a remote headquarters has, perhaps, become simpler and more integrated with IP-enabled devices and localized Wi-Fi.

Military attendance at the 29th annual NSS was certainly far below normal levels and NASA was totally absent, but the event easily shifted to a most worthwhile industry-to-industry focused networking opportunity.

I think those of you who joined us here in Colorado Springs would agree. We still had lots of U.S. Air Force generals on the agenda and strong support from U.S. Army space warfighters. But this year, the face of the Space Symposium was increasingly international... on the program stage, in the exhibit center, and in the private meetings.
