MEASAT-3d is all set to launch.

 




The MEASAT-3d telecommunications satellite, developed by Airbus, is currently at Kourou, French Guiana, and will be launched on an Ariane 5 on June 22, 2022.

MEASAT-3d is Airbus' 57th E3000 satellite, and it will be collocated with MEASAT-3b, which was also manufactured by Airbus, in the 91.5°E orbital slot. This new satellite will dramatically improve broadband rates of up to 100 Mbps in parts of Malaysia with poor or no terrestrial access, while also providing redundancy and more capacity for HD, 4K, and eventually 8K video delivery in the Asia-Pacific region.

 "MEASAT-3d is based on our extremely dependable Eurostar satellite platform, which includes the current E3000 series, which has 58 in orbit and has operated successfully for over 1000 years," says Francois Gaullier, Head of Telecom Satellites at Airbus. "MEASAT is a crucial customer for us, and we're excited to see how this modern spacecraft may help them grow their company in the future."

 Apart from C and Ku-band capacity for DTH, video distribution, and telecommunications services, it also includes I an HTS Ka-band mission with multiple user spot beams optimised to deliver high-speed broadband communications over Malaysia, bridging the country's digital divide; and (ii) a Q/V band payload, the first of its kind in the Asia-Pacific region, which allows MEASAT to study the propagation effects in high-rainfall regions like Malaysia, allowing the design A L-band navigation hosted payload for the Korea Augmentation Satellite System (KASS) for KTSAT is also carried by the satellite.

 

MEASAT-3d is planned to have electrical output of 12kW at the end of its life, which is expected to be more than 19 years.
