MANGOSAT SATELLITE GROUND SYSTEMS & VSAT SUPPORT

Satellites (aka space segment) have a variety of uses including but not limited to communication relay, weather forecasting, scientific research, Earth observation, specific civil & military applications, and navigational (GPS). 

Regardless its mission all satellites need a “ground station or ground system” to close the loop. 

The ground system is a series of antennas, communications networks, and processing facilities that command and control the satellites, bring their data down to Earth, route data to processing facilities, create data products and distribute them. A ground station could be a traditional VSAT or something bigger..or smaller. Click here to read more. 

Mangosat is in business to design, install and maintain ground and VSAT stations of any generation, any size, anywhere.

What & How

Mangosat provides rapid response and scalable resources to complete projects world-wide. With the combination of local resource partners, Mangosat offers unmatched levels of integration and maintenance quality.

Our local partners (aka Field Service Representative or FSR), with oversight by the Mangosat Program Manager & Project Engineer, may complete on-site integration work, as well as site-specific engineering and preventative / reactive maintenance tasks. 

By adding this element to the “end to end” logistics solution, our customers would effectively be working with one global implementation and maintenance partner.

VSAT Implementation Considerations

Section under development

Contrary to popular belief, building an infrastructure involves many hidden costs, unconsidered or underestimated costs and other unknown parameters than can affect the total cost of the project.

Like any infrastructure setup, the initial cost of a remote VSAT varies from location to location. Costs depend on what will have to be installed (size of the aperture, cable runs, mounting constructions etc.), when the job must be done and all the other additional requirements. Not to mention the willingness to cooperate and the efficiency of the remote end-customer.

A professional site survey is key in the life cycle of a project. Information gathered during they survey drives decision making, risk mitigation and installation planning.

Today’s radio frequency environment has many interference sources and a RFI survey is critical to identify and characterise terrestrial emissions in or adjacent to the frequency band of operation.

Once an end-customer purchases a service and related equipment, they will need it expertly installed within their operating environment. A dispatched team of Mangosat engineers will ensure that the equipment is correctly installed, tested, and fully operational from the start.

Mangosat provides a worldwide reach in order to meet SLAs and mission critical restoration. For customer support after the installation, Mangosat local partner resources (aka FSR) may be trained and retained for future preventative and reactive maintenance services.

Unfortunately additional value-added services and maintenance calls cannot be provided for free (anymore). Service calls related to RF interference and electrical power supply  are handled separately.

Satellite Space Segment Versus Ground Segment

Satellite communications’ ground segment’ has all too often been considered the less interesting, non-identical twin, to ‘space segment’. Space segment are the satellites that have been placed into orbit. Ground segment are the antennas in the field. However – and this is bad news for the sexy part of the business – satellites in orbit are useless without networks on the ground and the antennas that can receive and transmit satellite signals efficiently. 

Launches and the orbiting of spacecraft are “sexy”; outdoor and indoor units on Earth do not have the same visual impact, can be difficult to implement too. It’s our core business, we love it, and we know (almost) everything about it.

All ground segment systems need to be installed and maintained and this is exactly what Mangosat does for her customers world-wide.

Since 1995 we’ve been successfully installing VSAT systems of all sizes, shapes, makes and models. From a single SCPC terminal to large scale TDMA network roll-out. L-, C-, X-, Ku- and Ka-band, we support it all! We’ve been to the most exotic places and darkest corners of our planet. We’ve worked in war zones and experienced natural disaster first hand. You can always count on our experienced teams to complete your installation with precision and efficiency regardless where and when the job needs to be done.
