Satellite Communications (SatComms) TrainingThis course is part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). SAL-HUB will offer a modular course providing both an overview of Satellite communications and some detail in terms of Satcom systems and business needs. The foundation level will include an Introduction to Satellite Communications covering an overview of uses and benefits, and different configurations (including low earth orbit and geostationary).
More detailed modules will include Use Cases to Requirements covering an understanding of common use cases for Satcom; Regulation & Standards; Satcom System Design including satellite capacity, ground segment system management and related services; network design and link budgets; Management Systems; 5G & Satellites; System Design and Business Requirements and Techno-Economic Analysis considering technical and societal benefits of SatComms. Linked Cross-Cutting Modules and PNT & EO/GIS Courses: Module delivery schedule: These modules take place at 1100-1230 (London time zone) every Friday from 11 October to 13 December.
