IEEE AESS ACT Seminar - Introduction to Satellite Coordination
Title: Introduction to Satellite Coordination
When: Tue 11-Aug-26 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Speaker: Dr. Tharaka Dissanayake, Defence
Abstract: Satellite coordination is an essential part of satellite systems that the orbits are secured through an international framework. The seminar will introduce the International Telecommunication Union procedures that nations should follow to ensure interference free satellite operation. At a high level the technical elements of the process will be discussed. We will also briefly look at challenges faced by the regulatory regime. Fundamental knowledge of satellite communication is expected.
