Figure 31 Omnidirectional Antenna
ORBCOMM Satellite Transceiver Set
Vaisala has integrated the satellite communication media called
ORBCOMM with the HydroMet systems, for example, MAWS. The
Vaisala HydroMet™ Systems support operation with the Panasonic
KX-67101 transceiver. The ORBCOMM system uses Low-Earth-
Orbiting (LEO) satellite, enabling the use of low power and small
antenna in the transmitter terminals.
The ORBCOMM transmitters offer a low cost and robust way of
transmitting data from remote sites almost in real-time. There is no need
to install costly direct ground receiving stations. The local ORBCOMM
operators offer the service where the data is transmitted to the users via
Internet or dedicated lines directly from their Gateway Earth Stations.
