With Autopoint functionality, the Swe-Dish IPT Suitcase is approaching
the ease-of-use of a mobile phone, says Swe-Dish Satellite Systems of
its It builds on the IPT Suitcase and includes integrated software for
fast, safe and secure Autopointing.
According to Swe-Dish, the Autopoint function
significantly simplifies operations and ensures precise antenna pointing
with one-button-operation. It does not require additional satellite
bandwidth to operate and no reference satellite, the IPT Suitcase will
directly find and point to the chosen satellite.
The unique IPT Suitcase navigation solution including GPS, compass and
electric tilt sensors, which combined with the Autopointing, completely
relieves the user of preparations prior to acquiring the satellite. The
electric tilt sensors and the developed software automatically
compensate the beam pointing and polarization skew if the terminal is
placed on an uneven surface. Typical antenna pointing, including fine
tuning, takes approximately 1 minute and can be performed by any staff.
This is made possible by a cognitive and user friendly graphical
interface displayed on a laptop with a web browser.
“The users, being defense organizations, government agencies and
broadcasters will benefit tremendously from using the Swe-Dish IPT
Suitcase Autopointing capability.” comments Håkan Karlsson, CTO at Swe-Dish.
Lars Jehrlander, CEO of Swe-Dish, says “We know that there is strong
market demand for the Autopoint function. We have developed the IPT
Suitcase in close cooperation with our user communities, to address both
their near term and future needs.”
