The OPENSKY™ platform is based on
DVB technology. DVB stands for Digital Video Broadcasting, the
European standard for digital TV. The DVB standard provides
a very high-speed, robust transmission chain capable of handling
the many megabytes per second needed for hundreds of MPEG-2
digital TV channels.
OPENSKY™
services are offered via two different Eutelsat satellites:
W3 at 7° East is primarly reaching users in the Mediteranean
area and Middle East. Atlantic Bird 1 at 12.5 West delivers
the OPENSKY™ Services for Western, Nothern and Eastern Europe.
