The Sunrise project concerns the
development and operation of a platform which can
deliver varied content to users in Europe and,
eventually, to nearly all major cities around the world.
Content providers will be able to broadcast material as
and when needed and the cost of broadcasting will be
reduced still further as the audience is widened. The
dramatic increase in potential audience size and the
reduction in the cost of broadcasting mean that more
businesses can take advantage of this new technology
to deliver their material.
CampNet is a project developing and
validating a nomadic communication service tailored to
the needs of caravan, campervan and motorhome
users. The system, based on the Sat3Play technology,
provides a unique European-wide communication
solution for TV, Internet and VoIP.
The project aims to carry out an assessment on the applications of satellite broadband - actual and potential. Assessment material will be based on a benchmarked study of Irish perceptions and attitudes on aspects of satellite broadband use and service provision.
BrandTV is a service platform allowing
production and distribution of tailored content (such as
logos, banners, text, images, etc.) to be displayed on
screens in the different betting shops in combination
with the live video of the horse races and greyhound
races. The multimedia screen format is generated at
SIS' broadcast hub using professional standard
equipment, rendered as a composite video screen,
MPEG encoded, and broadcast out to all receivers
simultaneously. Although this enables SIS to present a
set of multimedia formats for their customers there is
just one centrally created multimedia format available.
The specific study objectives of this project are many, but they can all be summarized by asking the following simple question: 'Is there a business case for MSS in the fourth generation of mobile networks?'
TeLeCare project was dedicated to the
development, validation and deployment of the March
Networks home telehealth solution to be delivered over
two-way satellite networks. This solution enables remote
nursing visits and vital sign monitoring through fully
interactive voice, video and data transmission, and will
target healthcare service delivery in rural and remote
areas.
The objective behind SchoolCast is to plan,
design, implement and pilot a content delivery system,
whereby a variety of multimedia files (internet, video,
audio, image) could be multicast to a set of Irish
secondary schools using a 2-way satellite infrastructure,
and cache the files at the school server for fast local
access.
The objective of the "eLearning of DVB" project is to host a set of web based training (WBT) courses on Digital Video Broadcasting with a special emphasis on Satellite DVB.
Development and pilot operations for a
point-of-sale television channel allowing personalisation
through multimedia contents originated by subscribers
via a web interface. Operation of the OTV Channel
includes acquisition of video contents, MPEG encoding of
videos, uplinking and distribution, reception by
BrandBoxes STB, operation of On-Line Picture
Messaging and helpdesk.
Almedia is a multi-media content management system that allows broadcast quality video content to be stored, browsed and retrieved from a central multimedia server.
This project is RUAG Aerospace Sweden's (formerly Saab Ericsson Space) follow-on to the Converters Receivers Evolution Programme with the ambition to cover important remaining areas needed for efficient flight production and provide more complete equipment.
The project aims to develop and to qualify a new version of the PROP module that is used in the Spacebus4000 platform for telecom satellite. The PROP module implements electronics for the control and the monitoring of the propulsion valves. The re-designed module is named PROPA and takes advantage of the experience gathered on the SB4000 satellites.
The project has brought forward key enabling technologies for a new generation integrated satellite-cellular system targeting rural deployments. This includes a low cost, low power 1TRX GSM radio and bandwidth efficient GSM-over-IP-over-DVB/RCS integration for low opex GSM backhaul.
The main objective of this study is to develop, manufacture and characterise one Engineering Model of an ultra light deployment mechanism based on purely elastic/collapsible hinges concept made of advanced high performance materials.
The activity aims to develop an EM of a Sealed Brush Gear Motor (SBGM) to fulfil an appendage deployment function, based on the Sealed Brush DC motor background and heritage obtained in the frame of the METOP contract 16278 "Development of a sealed Brush DC motor".
The first objective of the Access 3 project was to strengthen Newtec's Sat3play Product Line for the consumer market, the second being to ensure a complete product portfolio. Two key capabilities required for the consumer market resulted from the reoriented ACCESS 3 Project: Capability of Mass Production, and Capability of Do-It-Yourself installation of the Sat3Play terminal.
The University of Salzburg will assist the Iris project by developing and simulating models of the air traffic situation with respect to the time-frame of 2013 and 2025.
The objective of the the SatFlow Concept Demonstration project is to develop a new product line called SatFlow. SatFlow will offer operational benefits to terrestrial broadcasting tower operators for broadcasting digital television to both classical fixed television receivers and to mobile handheld terminals.

The PathFinder 1A project intends to launch an attached payload as a first demonstrator of space AIS capacity. For this purpose, an attached payload has been developed, to be launched along with SarLupe-3 satellite on the COSMOS 3 launcher.
A system PDR was successfully completed with ESA in February 2006 for the CX-OLEV mission, a GEO on-orbit servicing system which extends the mission lifetime of GEO telecom satellites. As this system is now based on a SMART-like platform, this study is being carried out in order to achieve the same level of maturity with new spacecraft. This adaptation study has been restricted only to the SENER responsibilities in the project lead by SSC.

Mission analysis to define a system architecture;
Definition of a business plan.
The EDRS (European Data Relay Satellite) Service Provider Study was carried out by Eutelsat with the aim of investigating both technical and commercial aspects of the EDRS system from the Satellite Operator?s perspective. The EDRS mission and architectures analysed in this study are primarily compatible with the service delivery of data relay and data repatriation/dissemination for GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) as well as data relay applications for the ISS (International Space Station). There are numerous additional services which can be offered by the system and these include data relay transfer for other Earth Observation (EO) missions, UAVs (Unmanned Arial Vehicles) or Launchers.
