Design Aspects of WINDS Ground Facility for Malaysia

The paper demonstrates the design aspects of Malaysian Ground Facility proposed to be established for the beam allocated at II. OBJECTIVES N3.14 latitude and E101.68 longitude in Ka-band by using WINDS (Wideband nterNetworking engineering test and Demonstration Satellite), which is currently under joint One of theimain oevesois o Carry o a development, by JAXA and the National Institute of Information experiment on Application development of e-learn,mg by and Communications Technology, Japan.181 Connecting University Technical Malaysia, Malacca Campuses via WINDS system and later connecting to other The purpose of the proposed ground facility is to test validity participating organizations in Japan, Thailand and Malaysia.and usefulness of Ka-band technologies related to large-capacity The other objectives include the development of WINDS data communications to promote the use of satellites in Malaysia Ground Station: for Radio Propagation Studies for Malaysia's for multimedia applications in such fields as Internet Environment, Electromagnetic Interference and Compatibly communications, Tele-education, Tele-medicine, Tele- Analysis in Ka-band. And Verification and Validation of Kanetworking,Tele-working, disaster measures and Intelligent band Technology at ultra sped data rate for Disaster Transport Systems (ITS) on non-commercial basis. [8
