Market Overview

A Micro VSAT is a Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) with an antenna that is smaller than 60 cm in diameter. Micro VSATs are created to be energy-efficient, durable, lightweight, and offer high data transmission capacity despite the technical obstacles they may face. A telemedicine system involves a connection between hardware, software, and a communication channel in order to link two different locations for information exchange and remote consultation. Telehealth can improve healthcare in rural areas by connecting rural healthcare providers and their patients to remote services and emphasizing patient-focused healthcare. Telehealth enables rural providers and patients to access services from a distant location. Communication technologies play a crucial role in the telemedicine procedure. Different methods of communication, both on land and in space, are utilized to establish the connection. Videoconferencing is a crucial element of telemedicine as it allows participants to communicate in real-time. Several factors determine the quality of a video conference, with the type of connection and bandwidth playing a crucial role in its success. Video conferencing involves synchronous visual communication for collaborative purposes.
