  1. SATELLITE PHONE COMMUNICATION

  2. Satellite - Generalities • Good independence: The second more independent mean after radio. • Confidentiality: More confidential than radio and local means, it is still possible to be listened by local authorities. • Expensive: Satellite communications are generally expensive but the cost of the local landline need to be compared .

  3. Satellite – ACF Particularities • ACF Paris purchase: Every single satellite phone needs to be purchased in Paris. • Warranty: 1 year warranty. • Service: All SIM cards have post-paid service for security reasons (no pre-paid card run out possible). • Effectiveness: All backup phones need to be checked in used once a month The kit of the sat phone should be complete, especially for the 12V and the 220V power adaptors.

  4. Communication – Log. responsabilities • Equipment • Purchase, maintenance, life expectancy, renewal, support, link H.Q • Usage • allocation, usage (equipment, communication), briefing, training, monitoring • Procedures • Monitoring, logistic, security • Cost • Adequation means/needs, control, reminders • Policies • Fleet renewal, communication plan, projections

  5. Satellite phones – Thuraya • Good points : Very good portability Affordable phone • Bad point : No Global coverage • Preconisation: Use Thuraya phones in the covered areas.

  6. Satellite Modem – Thuraya IP+ • Good points : Voice and high speed data transmission Good efficiency of Thuraya network No use = No bill !!! • Bad points : No global coverage No outside antenna Risk of overconsumption Sentitive protection indice • Preconisations: To have one Thuraya IP+ per base To monitor its use and consumption

  7. Thuraya coverage South Somalia North Sumatra

  8. Satellite phones – Isat phone • Good points : Inmarsat network Global coverage • Bad point : Expensive • Preconisation: To use in mobile need outside Thuraya network

  9. Satellite Modem – BGAN • Good points : Voice and high speed data transmission Very good efficiency of INMARSAT network Worldwide coverage • Bad points : No outside antenna High risk of overconsumption Sentitive protection indice • Preconisations: To have one BGAN per base where no Thuraya coverage To monitor its use and consumption

  10. North Papua New Guinee North DRC (Kisangani) West Galapagos (Ecuador)

  11. BGAN HF and VHF Radios Thuraya General telecom politics Generalities for Security needs Good independance FACTORS Independence and Reliability Thuraya IP ISAT Phone VSAT – Land line – GSM phone Few or no independance

  12. BGAN ISAT Phone Thuraya General telecom politics $ Generalities for Operationnal needs HF and VHF Radios Actual trend… FACTORS Communication Cost and Reliability (in function of local quality) GSM phone – Land line – Vsat Thuraya IP $ $ $ $ $

  13. Satellite Equipment use basic rules • Find a place outside with free space in the direction of the operator satellite: => Turn on the phone • Look for the GPS position:=> Done either automatically after turn on or manually on the current position menu • Look for the Operator network (Thuraya or Inmarsat):=> Done either automatically after turn on or manually on the current position menu === Makeyour call !
