The W1 satellite provides a total
of twenty-eight channels, twenty of which are connected to a fixed Widebeam
coverage encompassing Europe, the Atlantic Islands, North Africa, the Middle
East and Central Asia. The remaining eight channels are connected to a Steerable
coverage, which is used to address new markets in geographical areas lying
outside of the Widebeam coverage area. The satellite is designed so that
services can be simultaneously provided within both coverages, providing the
possibility for networking between the Widebeam and another geographical area.
This satellite was first ordered as Orion 2 by
Orion in 1997. SPECIFICATIONS SATELLITE:
