[SatNews] The Satellite Users Interference Reduction Group (SUIRG), the global industry organization dedicated to combating the costly problem of satellite radio frequency interference (RFI), is holding its 7th Annual Satellite Interference Conference from September 28th through 30th, 2010, in San Francisco, CA.
Interference is exacting a growing financial toll on the satellite industry. Comprised of representatives from the private and public sectors, SUIRG shares and disseminates satellite RFI information and remedies, works with industry to define equipment standards and proficiency training, and actively pursues programs to reduce or mitigate satellite radio frequency interference. Global and regional satellite operators, service providers, uplinkers, equipment manufacturers and other organizations concerned with the rising costs and customer impact associated with satellite RFI problems should consider attending this meeting. Conference attendees will benefit from the three-days of lively and informative open discussions on satellite Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) issues with executives representing the major satellite operators, users, and equipment providers. Discussions will center on means of mitigating RFI, along with measures underway by the industry to stop interference before it begins. Sessions will focus on various aspects of dealing with satellite interference and will include reviews of interference case studies and the sharing and exchange of interference identification and mitigation techniques.
The SUIRG 2010 Annual Satellite Interference Conference will be at the Hyatt at Fisherman’s Wharf. This year the SUIRG conference is hosted by SAT Corporation, an international supplier of RF spectrum monitoring and interference detection systems for satellite and terrestrial communications management.
SUIRG members and their employees attend at no charge. The non-member registration fee is $750, discounted to $450 for first time attendee companies. To register, go to http://suirg.org/2010_conference.shtml.
