YachtKu Global CIR
and why is so important?
Committed Information Rate (CIR) is guaranteed bandwidth that is not shared by other clients on the network. It guarantees communications when the network is heavily loaded.
How much CIR do the YachtKu Global plans have?
Divide the plan speeds by the contention ratios, and the result is the CIR.
YachtKu Global ABS and why is so importat?
To do it properly requires multiple satellites with wide geostationary separation with overlapping beams.ABS is used to solve blockage issues, whether onboard or nearby. If you only have two satellite close together both may be blocked.
What triggers ABS?
GPS position indicates the vessel is approaching the footprint edge.
Antenna azimuth (to the satellite) approaching a mapped blockage zone.
Reduction of SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio)
OBM command and control ability.
ABS is not instantaneous. A new option file is pushed to the modem and the iDirect modem needs to reboot.
