Developing algorithms to optimise satellite communications
Rapid growth in demand for their services prompted Inmarsat to seek an optimisation partner to ensure their satellites remain operating at peak capacity. Smith Institute’s expertise in algorithm design and mathematical optimisation combined with our particular knowledge of the complexities of radio communications spectrum management made us an attractive choice. We worked with Inmarsat to construct and benchmark an optimised series of algorithms that maximise spare capacity responsively and minimise unmet demand, enhancing the customer experience and protecting Inmarsat’s bottom line.
