SENS Simplex Service Extends to Mexico
Ashburn VA (SPX) Jul 20, 2006 AeroAstro has announced the successful installation of a new AeroAstro SENS Applique at the ground station in San Martin, Mexico, independently operated by Globalstar de Mexico. The SENS Applique, an add-on to existing Globalstar ground stations, receives and decodes remote sensing data from field transmitters via the Globalstar LEO satellite network. It digitizes RF signals and extracts SENS message packets despite interference or overlapping transmissions, and transmits these messages through the Internet. The unit, one of several new SENS Appliques purchased by Globalstar LLC, will allow for seamless SENS/Simplex coverage from Alaska and northern Canada southward to parts of Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile and the Pacific coast maritime region of South America. "AeroAstro is pleased to provide enhanced service coverage in this region," said Rick Fleeter, the company's chief executive officer. "Combined with our new back office data portal and IVMS voice messaging service we now support a comprehensive service offering in Mexico." AeroAstro offers SENS/Simplex Data Services in North America, Europe, the North Atlantic, North Africa, Middle East, Central America, South America, and Australia.
