Pursuant to its current experimental authorization, COMSAT continues to conduct several wideband mobile tests involving the transmission of voice and data transmissions at C— and Ku—band frequencies via the INTELSAT satellite system to and from seagoing vessels. These services are generally of the type which could not be offered by Inmarsat, due to bandwidth limitations inherent in L—band satellite networks. The cverall purposes of these experiments continues to be to demonstrate the use of C— and Ku—band communications via INTELSAT in the mobile maritime environment. Based on experience to date, it continues to appear that such service is technically compatible with existing fixed services and the electro—magnetic environment and have great promise for the international marketplace.
