...a keynote address at the 2012 Joint Satellite Communication Conference in Ottawa, Canada. This year?s event, hosted jointly by the Ka and Broadband Communications Conference, and the AIAA International Communications Satellite Systems Conference (ICSSC), provides an opportunity for communications experts to share new satellite communication research and technology, and focus this research to new applications development. The theme of the 2012 conference is Satellites in the Service of Humanity and the event includes a number of high profile speakers.
Dr. Chan will address the attendees at 12:30 p.m. on September 27, 2012, focusing on communication as an essential service for social wellbeing and economic development. Norsat?s commitment to this ideal has been demonstrated in their development of communication technologies that are used to provide connectivity in locations where traditional communication infrastructure is insufficient, unreliable, damaged or non-existent.
In Iraq and Afghanistan, Norsat?s video streaming technologies and Ku-band portable satellite terminals are used to broadcast and receive live HD coverage of events and interviews. In 2010, Norsat?s satellite terminals were deployed to provide emergency communications and broadcast services following the earthquake in Haiti and the mine collapse in Chile. Norsat also provides remote network connectivity solutions, including a project to supply broadband internet connectivity to 17 remotely located First Nations communities in BC, as part of a partnership with the First Nations Emergency Society of BC (FNESS) and the First Nations Technology Council.
?The Joint Satellite Communications Conference is an excellent way to raise awareness of the importance of satellite communication technology and its application to emergency response and remote locations connectivity. It?s an honor to have the chance to speak at this conference, and to share some of the ways in which Norsat?s communications technologies have and can be used to make the world a more connected place,? stated Dr. Chan.
