Inexpensive Satellite Bandwidth under Development

A team of researchers funded by the European Union has developed methods for optimizing satellite bandwidth, potentially dropping the combined cost of satellite phone, television, and internet services to as little as 50 Euros a month.
The Integrated Multi-layer Optimization in broadband DVB-S.2 Satellite Networks (IMOSAN) project focuses on getting the most out of existing resources and creating a wireless interface to the satellite network in order to distribute the satellite bandwidth to the largest number of consumers possible.
Key elements of the new system include a Satellite Resource Management System (SRMS), a Bandwidth Manager and Multiplexer (BWMM), and hardware and software encoders for various audio and video formats (including SD MPEG-4/AVC / H.264 analog and HDTV video).
