GOVSATCOM Service developments and demonstrations
- R&I for the consolidation of integrated use cases and demonstration of EU GOVSATCOM service interoperability in real user environment.
- Development of an innovative use case (e.g. in the area of crisis management, surveillance, critical infrastructure etc.) exploiting a combination of secure SATCOM services, such as Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) and Fixed Satellite Service (FSS);
- Interoperability of services based on pooled and shared capacities from different satellite systems;
- Interoperability of governmental satellite-based communication services with terrestrial communication services;
- Development of end to end secure, interoperable, quickly deployable, affordable and user-friendly GOVSATCOM user services ;
- Integrated application leveraging the synergies with services provided by other Space Programme components (Galileo, EGNOS, Copernicus, SSA);
- Proof of concept in a real user environment;
- Awareness and outreach activities in favour of EU GOVSATCOM user uptake.
- R&I Areas to be addressed:
- Interoperability between satellite communication systems’ services;
- Seamless handover between satellite and terrestrial communications networks for the provision of governmental communications services;
- Service level interoperability between commercial and MS owned satellite communications systems;
- Integration of EU GOVSATCOM services with services provided by the other components of the Space Regulation.
