Innovation @ ASTRA

The classic definitions of innovation include:

  • the introduction of a new idea, method or device
  • the process of making improvements by introducing something new
  • the successful exploitation of new ideas
  • change that creates a new level of performance

Innovation – an ASTRA tradition

Innovation has always been an integral part of ASTRA’s philosophy. From launching Europe’s first medium-power DTH satellite to inventing the often-copied system of co-positioning satellites, we have helped reshape satellite economics by successfully introducing and implementing new ideas.

Our innovative spirit continues to enhance performance levels with new products and services such as two-way satellite connectivity for mobile phones and broadband, an industry standard to simplify domestic satellite installations, and an LNB that can simultaneously receive signals from two ASTRA orbital positions.

Follow the links below for our latest innovations:

  • Duo LNB - simultaneous reception of ASTRA satellites at 19.2° and 23.5° East
  • Ka-band contribution - high performance, point-to-point contribution applications
  • ASTRA2Connect - flat rate, always on, two-way broadband via satellite
  • Single-cable distribution - programme delivery to multiple users over a single cable
  • Blucom - two-way connectivity between TV and mobile phone

Innovation - an ASTRA watchword

Innovation will always emerge when preparation meets opportunity. We’re already developing the ideas that will generate tomorrow’s innovation headlines. Current projects include TV transmission to mobile phones, and IPTV.
