Press Release: 28th November 2024
Orion Satellite Systems, a global leader in satellite communication solutions, is thrilled to announce the launch of its state-of-the-art Horizon Multi-Orbit Management Solution. Developed for optimising the performance of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations like OneWeb and Starlink or Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellites like SkyMuster, this innovative system also provides seamless support for edge device integration and redundancy.
As the satellite industry experiences rapid growth, particularly in the LEO sector, the ability to effectively manage and optimise multiple orbits has become critical. Orion’s new solution ensures efficient coordination between LEO, GEO and MEO constellations, offering improved reliability, enhanced bandwidth management, and edge device optimisation.
Horizon Service Management and Horizon Gateway Device.
Orion’s award-winning service management portal, Horizon, has undergone significant upgrades to deliver industry-leading multi-orbit to complement the current geo-stationary and terrestrial management solutions. Key among these is the introduction of the Horizon Gateway Device, a sophisticated connectivity bonding platform that ultimately increases productivity and reduces downtime, even in the most critical scenarios. These two technologies work hand in hand to deliver the Horizon Multi-Orbit Management Solution.
Key Features of the Horizon Multi-Orbit Management Solution:
Seamless Multi-Orbit Handover: Ensures smooth data transitions between LEO, GEO, and MEO constellations, delivering uninterrupted and reliable connectivity across all orbits.
Dynamic Traffic and Bandwidth Management: Advanced algorithms intelligently distribute network loads, optimising bandwidth across all networks to deliver efficient routing and superior connectivity.
Redundancy Across Orbits: With built-in redundancy across Geostationary orbits and non-Geostationary orbits, Orion’s solution provides an extra layer of resilience to maintain uninterrupted service.
Scalable for Growing Constellations: The system is designed to scale effortlessly alongside the expanding number of LEO, GEO and MEO satellites, offering satellite operators the flexibility to manage larger constellations with consistent performance.
“Orion’s Horizon Multi-Orbit Management Solution is a key development for LEO satellite networks like OneWeb and Starlink,” said Dan Mandich, GM of IPSTAR ANZ. “With its enhanced support for edge devices and the added layer of GEO or MEO redundancy, our solution provides operators with unmatched reliability, enabling them to deliver uninterrupted global connectivity even in the most remote areas.”
This next-generation solution positions Orion Satellite Systems as a vital enabler of advanced satellite communications, allowing operators to take full advantage of multi-orbit architectures while addressing the growing needs of IoT, Earth Observation (EO) and critical connectivity applications.
