Atheras Analytics will be exhibiting at The 27th Ka and Broadband Communications Conference (Ka) and the 39th International Communications Satellite Systems Conference (ICSSC) and its Colloquium, in STRESA, ITALY, from October 18 through October 21, 2022.

Atheras Analytics has developed a suite of software tools to enable satellite operators to optimise the design and operation of their next-generation, multi-gateway Ka-band and Q/V-band satellite networks that are becoming essential to deliver high throughput satellite (HTS) services globally.

Our Chief Technical Officer, Dr. Charilaos Kourogiorgas, will be presenting a paper entitled: Design and Operation of a Smart Gateway Diversity (SGD) network, using an Outage Prediction Algorithm (OPA). You can catch the presentation on Thursday 20th October, at 14:00 CET.

At the event you can find our team to discuss our AI-enabled, SaaS-delivered software tools, which enable satellite operators to overcome the challenges they face in designing and operating next-generation, multi-gateway, Ka-band and Q/V-band HTS satellite networks.

Our tools include:

SGD Design Tool

High Throughput Data services need a large number of gateways, in some cases even in the hundreds. Planning how many gateways are needed and where to locate them for the optimum performance can be challenging and getting it wrong can mean disruption and outages.

Our SGD Design Tool helps mitigate that by using statistical analysis of historical weather patterns to ensure the best possible network availability and help you determine the most cost-effective network/gateway system configuration. 

SGD Operational Tool

The SGD Operational Tool uses AI-techniques to enable operators to pro-actively manage both simple two-station diversity gateways and more complex Smart Gateway Diversity (SGD) arrangements by predicting outages 7+ hours ahead, analysing weather predictions at all gateways and automatically transferring traffic to alternate gateways before outages occur.

The Operational Tool can be configured to provide forecast gateway switching plans every 15 minutes, which can then be executed either manually or automatically using an API.
