Broadband Satellite for Disaster
Management
Broadband Satellite for Asia-Pacific
IPSTAR (Thaicom-4): Only HTS in Asia
What is Broadband Satellite?
• Support Gbps traffic at Mbps speed with much lower cost than
conventional satellite system.
• Deliver IP communications regardless of type - data, voice, or
movie.

Quick IP Link Recovery at New Zealand
Earthquake, 2011
• IPSTAR service deployed in heart of Christchurch within 3 hours of the
disaster by Farmside, under request from NZ Fire Services
• Another setup was done at Halswell @ command center of volunteer
search and rescue operation team LandSAR.
Emergency Communications During
South Thailand Floods, 2010
• A tropical depression caused flooding in 11 out of 14
Southern provinces in November, 2010.
• Total of 400 BTS Stations out of operation.
• IPSTAR joined forces with AIS to provide Femtocell +
WiFi + VoIP service using Mobile VSAT Vehicle.
• Deployment in Hat Yai and Park Mark of Surat Thani.
• Service used by local population as well as security
and rescue personnel.
“Early Warning” for 2011
Thailand Floods
Government agencies provide public
information warning people to prepare
for the flood through various media, TV,
radio, internet and social media
Conclusion: Satellite for Disaster
Relief
Satellite Systems can:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Fill the communication, command and control gaps
as a result of crippled terrestrial networks.
Provide rapid, flexible disaster recovery and
emergency communications in times of
communication outages.
Meet the precise needs of first responder teams in
putting communication networks back on line in the
event of man-made or natural disasters.
Interconnect widely distributed systems and
networks
Broadcast on-the-spot news
Deliver two-way, mobile telephone communications
Provide nationwide coverage and consistent Quality
of Service (QoS), regardless of location
