Transport Media Segment
The UNIC Transport Media Segment contains all the subsystems dedicated to provide the means to communicate via satellite or alternate media. It includes ground subsystems (hub, teleport for satellite), communication infrastructure and local terminals.
The platform employs DVB-S(2) and DVB-RCS technologies in the forward and the return link, respectively. The flexible framing structure of DVB-S2 and the adoption of the Adaptive Coding & Modulation (ACM) functionality allow an efficient exploitation of the satellite resource.
