SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS REQUIREMENTS
1. Type of service required beyond normal narrative
staff traffic; e.g., EKG transmissions, secure voice,
computer interface, facsimile, etc. The reference already
indicated that there would be requirements for transmitting
digitalized data, including spoken voice and facsimile from
.all stations at which medical technicians and/or physicians
have been assigned. Please indicate what stations will be
involved.
2. How many locations/stations will require service
simultaneously?
3. Will service be required full-time, part-time, or
on a shared or on an on-call basis? If part-time, how
many hours per day? If shared or on-call, please provide
an estimate on the frequency of usage in addition to the
hours per day.
4. If multiple requirements exist, as they apparently
do (spoken voice, facsimile, computer interface, etc.),
please list in descending order of priority.
5. When will services be required at each location?
6. What data rates are required for each type of
service?
7. Will service be required both ways or only in one
direction? If in only one direction, will it be needed to
the field station or from the field station?
8. If possible, please provide a "best guess" analysis
of what your operating scenario will look like in the mid-
1980's (1982-1987) from a communications requirements
standpoint.
