The Norwegian domestic communication satellite system
Abstract
General communication requirements are examined, taking into account radio communication for off-shore oil rigs. An elegant solution of existing communication problems is provided by the use of telecommunication satellites. Questions concerning an agreement between Intelsat and the Norwegian Telecommunications Administration (NTA) regarding the possible use of satellites are discussed, and attention is given to arrangements between the oil field operators and NTA. Details regarding the communication system are considered.
