This presentation was presented during a joint webinar organized by both Newtec and the satellite Interference Reduction Group (IRG).
The presentation focuses on:
- the impact of satellite interference,
- how Carrier ID works,
- the expectations from the satcom industry (based on the results of a joint IRG and Newtec survey on the topic conducted in July-August 2013),
- implimentation of CID as mentioned in the WBU-ISOG resolution of July 2013

16. INDUSTRY COMMENTS
“We typically have 2-3 interference
events per day. Interference in
general only affects 1-2% of the
total bandwidth available.
Despite it being a small proportion,
it can have a significant
impact on satellite
services and takes time and
resources to resolve.”
Chris Grogan, SES
“The topic has moved
from talking about
satellite interference to
taking actions. There
are clear signs of the
satellite operators and
broadcasters going for the
necessary steps soon.”
“Those causing intentional
interference will not have CID, but if
everyone else does we can use CID
to identify the positive
elements too and thus ensure
those operating are quickly
helped to mitigate problems.”
Andreas Voigt, Eutelsat
Thomas V.d. Driessche,
CCO, Newtec
“CID will help
day-to-day
operations
and make the
industry better”
Guido Baraglia,
SAT Corporation

One third believes that training will reduce interference. A
quarter believes that CID will further reduce interference. And
the remainder believe that new provisioning and monitoring
technology will further reduce the impact of interference.
