The satellite is now located in its final orbital position at 36° West and will begin to offer its first services after testing in space.

MADRID, 26 May 2017. The Hispasat 36W-1 satellite (H36W-1) is now located at its final orbital position at 36° West and over the next few days it will begin to offer the telecommunications services it was designed for, after having successfully passed extensive testing in space. This new satellite offers coverage over South America and Europe, including the Canary Islands, and has 20 transponders on the Ku-band as well as additional capacity on the Ka-band.

It has a 15-year lifespan and will offer video contribution and cellular backhaul services, as well as business and broadband solutions, among others. The satellite was built by the German company OHB System AG and is the first mission of the new SmallGEO platform, developed by the German manufacturer together with the European Space Agency and HISPASAT. This platform allows a substantial reduction in satellite mass thanks to the use of electric propulsion throughout the lifespan of the satellite.

Hispasat 36W-1 lifted off from the European Space Port of Kourou in French Guiana on 27 January aboard a Soyuz rocket from Arianespace. Since then, the subsystems, transponders and antennas have been rigorously tested to ensure they operate correctly in orbit.
 
RedSAT Advanced Payload

The H36W-1 satellite incorporates RedSAT, an advanced regenerative payload consisting of a novel active antenna with reconfigurable beams that, together with the on-board processor, improves the efficiency and performance offered by the satellite. The antenna can be electronically controlled from the Earth and reoriented at any point during the lifespan of the satellite, granting it the flexibility to adapt its coverage to orbit changes that may occur in the mission after launch.

The on-board processor is a further step in the evolution of satellites, which can greatly simplify network architecture by performing in space a part of the processing usually carried out on Earth. It will be able to simultaneously process up to four 36 MHz transponders, correcting any degradations of the signal and transmitting it without errors, leading to a more robust and higher quality communications system that enables signal reception with small-diameter antennas.

About HISPASAT

HISPASAT is comprised of companies that have a presence in Spain as well as in Latin America, wh ere its Brazilian affiliate HISPAMAR is based. HISPASAT is a world leader in the distribution and broadcasting of Spanish and Portuguese content, and its satellite fleet is used by important direct-to-home television (DTH) and high-definition television (HDTV) digital platforms. HISPASAT also provides satellite broadband services and other added value solutions to governments, corporations and telecommunication operators in America, Europe and North Africa. HISPASAT is one of the world's largest companies in its sector in terms of revenue, and the main communications bridge between Europe and the Americas.

ЦитироватьFirst SmallGEO mission to start service

6 June 2017
After four months of exhaustive testing in space, the flagship SmallGEO mission Hispasat 36W-1 has passed all trials with flying colours, which means control has been handed to the operator.

H36W-1 lifted off from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou on 27 January on a Soyuz rocket. The launch marked a number of impressive firsts for both ESA and industry, as not only the first ESA partnership with a Spanish operator and the first telecom satellite to be built in Germany for over 20 years, but also the first time a Soyuz carried a telecom satellite to geostationary transfer orbit from French Guiana.

Once the rocket's upper stage released the satellite into this orbit, the team back on Earth set to work, measuring its health and performance after launch to ensure everything was working as it should.

Based at the German Space Operations Centre in Oberpfaffenhofen, the team of ESA, Hispasat, OHB System AG and DLR German Aerospace Center engineers meticulously took H36W-1 through a sequence of manoeuvres to move it to the optimum position for testing.

From that point on, every subsystem, transponder and antenna was put through its paces over the course of several months. Particular attention was paid to another first: the Redsat payload. This was the Spanish processor's first flight, and its flexible four-beam Ku-band Direct Radiating Antenna was thoroughly verified to make sure the delicate equipment was unscathed.
 
All partners joined forces to bring the satellite to the point of service readiness under two overlapping public–private partnerships. The SmallGEO platform on which the ESA–Hispasat satellite is based is the result of a partnership between ESA and OHB System AG. This programme was ESA's response to the demands of the fast-paced telecom market, as a way of helping industry to develop the cutting-edge technology and advanced manufacturing techniques needed to produce more efficient, modular satellite platforms at a much faster rate.

The culmination of this H36W-1 partnership is the satellite arriving at its operational position on the geostationary arc at 36ºW, and the final handover to its owner Hispasat.

Andrea Cotellessa, ESA's SmallGEO project manager, noted: "Now that it is at 36ºW, the satellite will start its 15 year operational life. We, at ESA, are very proud to have made possible the delivery to Hispasat of this new satellite. This is the result of several years of tremendous works carried out with OHB Group and their suppliers' base, and with our partner Hispasat.

"Europe's competitive offer for three tonne-class geostationary satellites is now a reality and Hispasat 36W-1 is the first of a long series of satellites using the newly developed SmallGEO platform."

H36W-1 will complement Hispasat's existing fleet of telecommunications satellites, providing a commercial broadband service over Europe, the Canary Islands and the Americas.
