  1. MGM 4136Current Issue In ManagementSatellite Technology

  2. Definition • Object which has been placed into orbit by human • sometimes called artificial satellites • Help forecast the weather, transfer telephone calls over the oceans, assist in the navigation of ship and aircraft, and support military activities.

  3. History • Arthur C Clarke -first person to popularize the idea of using satellites • First artificial satellite - Sputnik 1 • Launched by the Soviet Union on 4 Oct 1957 • helped to identify the density of high atmospheric layers through measurement of its orbital change and provided data on radio-signal distribution in the ionosphere • Sputnik 2- launched on November 3, 1957 and carried the first living passenger into orbit

  4. History • Explorer 1 - United States’ first satellite on January 31, 1958. • Malaysia has only got their first satellite in 1996 with the launched of MEASAT. • Both MEASAT-1 & 2 satellites were launched on Ariane rockets from Centre Spatial Guyanais at Kourou in French Guiana. • MEASAT is owned by Binariang and the owner of Maxis, the biggest mobile operator in Malaysia. In May 1994, BinariangSdn. Bhd of Kuala Lumpur and Boeing Satellite System signed a contract calling for the construction of the contraction of the Malaysia East Asia Satellite (MEASAT) system.

  5. Types of artificial satellites

  6. Advantages

  7. Disadvantages

  8. Global Positioning System (GPS) Precision Farming ASTRO RazakSAT in Malaysia Example of Satellite Technology

  9. Global Positioning System (GPS) • satellite-based navigation system • maintained by the United States • government • The first GPS satellite was launched • in 1978 • dual-use technology • Surveying, Map-making, • Navigators, Cellular telephony

  10. Precision Farming • Taken advantage of GPS technology for several application • allow farmers to easily survey their land • Improvement for several perspectives;- • agronomical perspective • technical perspective • environmental perspective

  11. ASTRO(All-Asian Satellite Television and Radio Operator) • Malaysian direct broadcast satellite (DBS) pay television service • transmits digital satellite television and radio to households in Malaysia & Brunei • MEASAT Broadcast Network Systems • Ku-band signals can be affected by rain attenuation (rain fade)

  12. RazakSAT in Malaysia • Malaysian satellite carrying a high-resolution camera • second remote sensing satellite after TiungSAT-1 • Astronautic Technology Sdn.Bhd(ATSB) • Malaysian National Space Agency 's Ground Station • provide optimum coverage for the Malaysian region

  13. Launch of RazakSat

  14. Between two intact artificial satellites in Earth orbit Iridium 33 owned by Iridium Communications Inc. Kosmos-2251 owned by the Russian Space Forces 16:56 UTC on February 10, 2009, at 789 kilometers (490 mi) above the Taymyr Peninsula in Siberia Current Issue 12009 satellite collision

  15. Current Issue 2NASA Jump-Starts Space Technology Program • Senior NASA officials are so strongly wanted to jump-start advanced technology efforts . • Approval to devote $36.5 million in 2010 funding to eight high-priority research projects. • Be joint efforts with the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) . • U.S. President Barack Obama request for $572 million for 2011 budget .

  16. Conclusion • Brought convenience to our daily life • Education, agriculture, business, government, home and fisheries • Malaysia has successfully launch satellite
