Abstract :
In order to provide equal telecommunications access to villages, schools and health centers in remote areas, various innovative broadband models have recently been developed jointly by operators and Thailand´s National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), using the capacity demand sharing IP-based broadband communication technique. This paper presents and compares three innovative broadband models, namely, IP broadband satellite, WiMAX and CDMA 470. Various novel concepts in systems deployment and development of ground equipment technology enabling a more efficient use of spectrum are presented.
