  1. Status of the Satellite Communications Environment in Latin America CANTO 2005 Bernardo Schneiderman GVF - Liaison Latin America President - Telematics Business Consultants

  2. Status of the Satellite Communications Environment in Latin America AGENDA - What is GVF - Satellite Overview - Satellite Regulatory - Where GVF can Help

  3. What is the GVF? • Global Satellite Industry Association • Non-profit & Non-partisan • Formed in 1998 by 25 Companies • Today: 180 Companies in 60 Countries • Serves as Industry’s Unified Voice • Objective - Facilitate Satellite Services Thru: • Regulatory & Policy Reform • Heightened Awareness • Technical Co-ordination

  4. GeoPolitical Map of Latin America Latin America Data* 40 Countries Population > 340 Million GDP > US$ 1.3 Trillion Main Economies Brazil > US$ 450 Billion Mexico > US$ 633 Billion Southern C. > US$ 86 Bil. Andean > US$ 99 Billion Caribbean > US$ 5.0 Bil. • Data source; • Latin America Monitor 2002E

  5. C and Ku_Band Transponder Supply

  6. C and Ku-Band Capacity in Latin America

  7. Transponder Demand - Regional Projections to 2010 Source: Euroconsult, Paris

  8. VSAT Market Evolution First Generation: Agencies, Telcos, Big Businesses Second Generation: Small Telcos, Mid-Size Businesses Third Generation: SOHO, SME, Residential, Plus

  9. Broadband Satellite Access Market Forecasts Enterprise Demand (sites) Source: Northern Sky Research

  10. Main Satellite Operators in LA

  11. Example of Satellite Coverage in Latin America PAS 1- R C-Band North, Central, Caribbean and South America

  12. Example of Satellite IP Application Topology Satellite Remote Client Site Video VoIP Phone Satellite Broadband Modem IP Access Teleport California, USA LAN Switch Broadband VSAT Hub Remote Client Site with Wi-Fi Router VoIP Phone Satellite Broadband Modem Internet/ Backbone LAN Switch Wi-Fi Router Wi-Fi Lan Satellite Network Topology

  13. Example of IP Access via Satellite Internet Connectivity • High Speed 2 Way • Direct Link to Backbone Transportable/Temporary • Construction Sites • Ocean Liners • Interim Connection Backup/Recovery • Land Line Backup • Disaster Recovery • Terrestrial System Outages • Peak Hour Offload Point of Sale Solution • Price/Promo Updates • Customer Profiling • Inventory Inquiry Multicasting • Mass File Downloads • Product Catalogue Updates • Content Caching • Video Broadcast Remote Communications • Data • Voice • Network Traffic Distance Learning • Web Seminars • Interactive Classes • Curriculum Sharing Corporate Intranet / Private IP Corporate Intranet Email, File Transfers

  14. Example of Satellite Mobile Solution for IP (Video, Data and Voice) IPA Mobile Solutions ANYWHERE ANYTIME

  15. Example of IPA Marine Solutions Using Seatel Antennas

  16. Satellite Regulatory & Policy Implications • Satellite Has a Strong Track Record • Essential Tool for Broadband Delivery • Largely in Industrialised Nations • Policy Can Facilitate Its Use • To Elevate Economic, Health, Education Standards

  17. Challenge: Onerous Licensing Non-Transparency Slow Type Approvals Stifled Competition Restricted Access to Satellite Capacity Solution/Trend: Licensing Reforms One Stop Shops MRA, Self Declaration Liberalization Improved Access to Satellite Capacity Satellite Regulatory Reform:Acting Nationally, Thinking Regionally

  18. The Blanket Licensing Concept • Define Criteria for VSAT Terminal Type That Ensures No Interference Caused • Issue Single ‘Blanket’ License for Thousands of Identical-Type VSATs • Vital Services Are Provided Faster and at a Much Lower End-User Cost

  19. The U.S. Experience • Implemented a Decade Ago • Facilitated Deployment of World’s Largest Installed VSAT Base • “We wish we’d done it sooner.” - Roxanne McElvane, FCC

  20. The Regional ‘One Stop Shop’ Concept • Uphold National Sovereignty While: • Providing Access to Licensing Data • For Each Country in a Region • Via One URL

  21. Why a One Stop Shop? Without OSS: • Many contact points (NRAs) • Information from different countries • Many application forms With OSS: • Single point of contact: the Shop • Shared Database • Consolidated Application Form

  22. Meanwhile in the Americas... • 2000: CITEL VSAT OSS • www.citel.as.org/pcc3/vsat/vsat_information_of_licensing.asp • 2001: Resolution Adopted: • Conduct Comparative Analysis • VSAT Licensing Conditions • Seek Out Best Practice • In the Global Context • Objective: Regional Harmonization • 20 countries responded

  23. Uruguay Venezuela Chile Mexico Strategic VSAT Liberalization Has Begun in Latin America • Brasil • Peru • Costa Rica • Argentina CITEL

  24. Govt. Type Approvals Initiatives • Mutual Recognition Agreements: - Asia - Americas • Self Declaration of Conformity - R&TTE • Europe • USA

  25. Further Ways That The GVF Facilitates Industry’s Efforts • International Promotions • Commercial Leads • Market Intelligence • Regulatory Database • Discounts on Products & Services • And...

  26. The GVF Team • Working Groups: • Regulatory • Promotions • Broadband Multimedia • Membership • Mutual Recognition Arrangement • Technology
