  2. 1 Telesat Overview 2 • Broadband via Satellite • SchoolNet • Telemedicine • Smart Communities 3 Meeting Canada’s BroadbandVision

  3. Over 30 years of Satellite Services • Seven generations of satellites • Broad range of services today • 530 employees

  7. So… Why Satellite?

  8. Versatile Reliable Ubiquitous Cost-efficient Because Satellite is…

  9. CBC CHUM SHAW What If Everyone Listened to Radiovia the Internet? Single session + multiple router + multiple facility + duplicaterouting = High inefficiency. Complexity and costs rise.

  10. Over the air Cable DTH CBC CHUM SHAW Radio Distribution in Canada = EFFICIENCY = greater simplicity and lower costs

  11. Consider a Car Dealership Inventory In-store music, infomercials On-line ordering Financials Credit verification Training One dish a host of services

  12. Broadband via Satellite • Numerous multimediaapplications underway • SchoolNet • Distance learning • Telemedicine • Online government services • Smart communities • SOHO

  13. R&D Partners • Communications ResearchCentre • Industry Canada • Canadian Space Agency • CANARIE • European Space Agency • Telemedicine Tetra • Futureworks

  14. SchoolNet • Phase 1: Connect all Canadian schools to Internet • Phase II: Enhance Internet access through caching technology • Phase III: High-speed interactivity to/from schools

  15. Web requests sent first to local cache • If no luck, requests sent to network cache • If no luck, content retrieved from Internet TelesatTeleport Network Cache School LAN INTERNET Local Cache ISP ISP Phase ll Phase lll High-speed interactivity to/from schools Benefits: lower costs; improved network performance

  16. Telemedicine • Link Newfoundland communities with Memorial University’s Telemedicine Centre • Specialist diagnoses problem • Patients avoid travelling long distances for standard consultations

  17. Telemedicine “We’ve had a cardiologist consult with patients in Twillingate and Goose Bay, we’ve carried out medical education activities for residents in Twillingate, and we’ve held innumerable nursing education sessions — things that would have been impossible without the broader bandwidth that Telesat and satellite offer.” Dr. Carl Robbins, chair of TelemedicineMemorial University

  18. Smart Communities

  19. On-line Services Available Everywhere Provide public access to… Telehealth GovernmentOn-line Videoconferencing Regulations& Licensing GovernmentPrograms High-Speed Internet

  20. SOHO: small office - home office Applications… • High-speed Internet access • Videoconferencing • IP telephony • Streaming video

  21. Meeting Canada’s Broadband Vision NATIONAL BROADBAND TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATIONS • All Canadian communities should have access to Broadband by 2004 • First Nations + Rural + Remote Communities should have priority • Link 2-3 public institutions in a Community Challenge:Over 3,000 communities not expected to be connected by commercial carriers and service providers • Solutions: Two Models • Community Aggregator • Direct to User/Small Business

  22. ANIK Fs’ Capacity Available Now C-band Ka-band Capacity to serveover 2,000 communities Capacity to serveover 300,000 users

  23. Community AggregatorModel • Shared community hub • High-speed satellite links to other communities (telehealth, videoconferencing, etc.) • High-speed Internet and Online • Flexible capacity…available now

  24. Direct toUser/Enterprise Model • High-speed Internet access available anywhere • Anik F2 capacity: 300,000 users across Canada • 100 mbs through CRC/CSA…30,000 users

  25. Connecting Canada Communities Schools Telecommuters SOHO and SMB Internet andBroadband Networks Hospitals Gateways

  26. Connecting Canadians is… Simply Satellite Simply Satellite • Capacity here today and more to come • Telesat multimedia systems now operating • Satellite is only way to connect all Canadians • Versatile, reliable, ubiquitous, cost-efficient
