Dispatch Radio
Mobile Satellite Ventures
Dispatch Radio Service allows work crews, drivers, search and rescue teams,
firefighters, and others to stay in touch and get the job done virtually
anywhere.
The two-way group communications
capability allows one user to talk to many, or users can conduct private one to
one conversations utilizing the MSAT G-2 Hughes satellite telephone radio. The
service is a cost-effective alternative to installing, maintaining, and
relocating land-based two-way radio communications systems.
The Dispatch Radio Network is
made up of the following components:
- Mobile Terminal MSAT-G2 LM
Land Mobile unit or MSAT-G2 Fixed Site unit
- MSV Satellite
- Satellite Hub and CGS
- Dispatcher
About Mobile Satellite
Ventures
Mobile Satellite Ventures is
North America’s premier provider of mobile satellite communications. Delivering
service since 1996, MSV offers customers a wide choice of wireless data, voice,
fax and dispatch radio services via its existing U.S. and Canadian licensed
satellites. MSV provides superior capacity and reliability for customers across
North America, northern South America, Central America, the Caribbean, Hawaii
and in coastal waters.
MSV is developing the next
generation hybrid wireless network that will use a powerful satellite
constellation working in unison with MSV’s patented ancillary terrestrial
component (ATC) technology to deliver seamless wireless services to end-users
over standard wireless devices.
Dispatch Radio Service
To direct and redirect your fleet
reliably, Mobile Satellite Ventures Dispatch Radio Service offers two-way voice
dispatch or one-way voice broadcast service. It's a cost-efficient alternative
to land-based radio communications systems.
Not only can you implement the
service almost overnight, you don't have to build and maintain your own private
network, which minimizes capital costs and eliminates network support costs
altogether.
The MSV network acts much the
same as a radio tower, turning the entire continent into a single cell and
transmitting signals to and receiving signals from subscribers on the ground.
Dispatch Radio Service can also be configured to provide extra security to your
subscribers.
Customize your communication
with talk groups
Dispatch Radio Service relies on
establishing talk groups - sets of users who share a common radio channel. Each
MSAT terminal can support up to 15 talk groups. While users can belong to more
than one talk group, each talk group can include as many as 10,000 members. When
establishing talk groups, priority levels can be predetermined in order to define
who will be permitted to listen and speak during each session.
Users also have the ability to
dial-in to a talk group from the PSTN or dial-out from a talk group to the PSTN.
Dispatch Radio Service
features and benefits:
-
Priority 1 interrupt -
in emergencies, a user can override other users within the same talkgroup. You
can set a talkgroup to one of three different priority levels, which allows
users to filter out conferences on low-priority talkgroups unless that
talkgroup is selected. High-priority talkgroup conferences are always heard no
matter which talkgroup is selected.
-
Network flexibility –
MSAT Terminals can be interfaced with existing terrestrial fleet
communications infrastructures.
-
Interoperability – talkgroups can be configured to allow for interagency communications between
local, regional, and national emergency response organizations.
-
Coverage Adaptability
– the footprint allows
subscribers to expand or reduce dispatch radio coverage as their needs change.
-
Network reliability
– Satellite networks
perform during emergencies when land-based communications are not available.
-
Secure Communications –
the network employs the IMBE (Improved Multi-Band Excitation) voice codec
approved by the Association of Public Safety Communications. Digital coding
and scrambling prevents casual eavesdropping or monitoring of calls.
Dispatch Radio Service can
help people in numerous industries and occupations do their jobs more
effectively:
- Homeland Security
- Public Safety
- Emergency Response
- Transportation
- Rail
- Mining
- Oil and Gas
- Forestry
- Utilities
- Coast Guard
