1. O3b Applications for Emergency ResponseWGET-ICT Humanitarian Forum11-12 April 2013David Burr,Director, Product Development

2. Launch Update O3b Networks is launching 8 satellites thisyear The first 4 will launch in just a few weeks. Commercial services commencing in Q4 An additional 4 satellites will follow in 2014 The O3b constellation makes use of: A Medium Earth Orbit which reduces delay andimproves performance while reducing costs Ka-band frequencies, to provide higherthroughput. A flexible spot beam architecture that allowscapacity to be delivered where needed, and to bemoved in near real time as operationalrequirements change. O3b wants to explore with the WGETcommunity how this ground-breaking servicecan be deployed to support emergency andhumanitarian response. 2 3. O3b A revolutionary solution A different kind of satellite: The Medium Earth Orbit reduces delay by 75% compared with GEOO3b Networks8,062 km Lower cost to build and launch compared with GEO O3b is the first satellite constellation built with IP and mobile networks in mind O3bs cost advantage enables the business case for sites that are not possible with GEO O3bs low latency dramatically improves the quality of voice and data services36,000 km O3b150ms 500msGeostationary Satellites 3 4. How O3b Works4 5. Satellite Overview Each satellite has 12 steerable antennas 10 antennas used for customer beams 2 antennas used for Gateway connectivity Each beam is independently steerable to any location within +/- 45 latitude Beams can be stacked at the same location to provide additional capacity Circular polarization is used RHCP and LHCP Each Gateway beam is connected to five customer beams A single satellite supports two groups of this 1:5 configuration Loopback beams can also be configured to provide localized connectivity up and down in the same beam Each customer beam is configured with a 216 MHz Ka-band transponder in the forward direction a 216 MHz Ka-band transponder in the return direction5 6. Satellite Payload Each satellite has 12 steerable antennas: 40 cm in diameter 6 RHCP and 6 LHCP. Two axis gimbals to control elevation and azimuth angles. 6 7. Coverage Where it counts. 177 countries and 70% of earths population are within optimal coverage Much of the most demanding humanitarian response geography will be served 8. Beam Coverage Inner coverage is defined as 0.2o off-boresight. Thisinner antenna coverage (approximately 50 km indiameter) provides optimal antenna gain forpremier Tier 1 services. Outer coverage is defined as 2.5o off-boresight. 2.5o Outer This antenna coverage (approximately 700 km in Coverage diameter) provides coverage area for customerservices, while also providing sufficient antennagain.0.2o InnerCoverage700 km 50 km OuterInner Coverage Coverage8 9.

O3b Maritime Emergency Response Example Hospital ships may be deployed to provide medical facilities to support emergency response. Radio communications with land based personnel is often difficult due to line-of-sight and otherissues. Shipboard O3b stabilized platforms can provide high speed connectivity to shore based teamsvia the O3b gateway. Provides access to medical experts where not physically possible Improves triage Aids in logistics of supplies, ground and air transportO3b Networks Proprietary18 19.
