Advantech Wireless to present A-SAT Discovery Hub Demonstration at Satellite 2014

Montreal, Canada, March 6, 2014 – Advantech Wireless Inc., a privately-held Canadian corporation and manufacturer of Satellite, RF Equipment and Microwave Systems will present details and a demonstration of its revolutionary VSAT Discovery Hubs product line-up based on Adaptive Satellite Access Technology (A-SATTM) at the Satellite 2014 Exhibition that will take place March 11th through March 13th, in Washington, D.C.

Advantech Wireless’ A-SATTM technology is beyond dual mode DVB-RCS/TDMA-SCPC. It monitors channel utilization and other user configurable parameters to switch the satellite access method and MODCOD seamlessly for the return channel to dynamically maximize the space segment utilization efficiency.  Additionally, by having TDMA and true SCPC technologies in a single platform, the switch between traffic patterns is efficiently supported and all risks of equipment obsolescence are mitigated. 

 “Advantech Wireless’ A-SATTM capability gives customers the option to use both SCPC and TDMA return channels in one platform,” mentioned Keith Dyson, Director Systems and Applications Engineering at Advantech Wireless. “To display our A-SATTM capability at the Satellite 2014 Exhibition, we will use real-time applications such as Voice-over-IP (VoIP) and streaming video to highlight this capability.”

During this demonstration Advantech Wireless will show multiple calls, from several VoIP phones over a TDMA channel and how streaming video behaves over TDMA versus SCPC return channels. Visitors will see the FTP Performance and how VoIP calls can be sustained as the Discovery Hub switches between TDMA and SCPC (and between SCPC and TDMA).
