Satcom

The satcom domain has shown significant technological advancements from 2.5G to 4G in last 10 years. As part of advances in this field, "hybrid networks" that combine both satellite and terrestial are becoming increasingly common in deployment. Various satcom companies are using this hybrid network approach to provide the mobile satellite systems with receivers that can seamlessly perform switching between the satellite and ground signals as per the strength and the availability.The coverage and the flexibility that the satcom systems provide makes them a key player for security applications, crisis management applications etc. Due to the inherent satellite broadcast architecture, such systems  can provide much more cost-effective broadcasting and multicasting of data, voice and video, which are key for the content industry.

HSC has a strong experience in various technologies of the satcom industry. The satcom team at HSC consists of highly experienced specialists in various areas including system engineering, network modeling, software component development and more, offering expertise across the entire spectrum for any satellite network.

Our skill domains in the satellite network ecosystem are described below.
