UK Frequency Regulator confirms Bringing into Use (BIU) Classification of 3 Diamonds satellites
Sky and Space Global Ltd (ASX: SAS, “Sky and Space Global” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received formal approval from the United Kingdom communications regulator, Ofcom, confirming the ‘bringing into use’ (BIU) classification of its 3 Diamonds nanosatellites.
BIU is a critical regulatory classification step that confirms the existence of an actual satellite in space by proving the capability of transmitting or receiving signals from a space station, deployed and maintained at a specific orbit for a continuous period of 90 days.
This marks a significant technical milestone for the Company, and is another critical part of the unique intellectual property and value that has been created for all SAS shareholders to date.
This process is part of the Satellite Filing procedures required by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and local regulators such as Ofcom, for specific frequency registration.
The SAS ITU filings for the frequencies related to the SSG‐CSL and SSG‐3D satellite systems used for the launch of the 3 Diamonds have been validated by the regulators. This is a major step for SAS as this provides regulatory confirmation of its ability to deliver services using the 3 Diamonds.
The 3 Diamonds nanosatellites were launched on 23/06/2017 and completed the required continuous operation period of 90 days on 23/09/2017.
