Meeting:	NANOG59
Date / Time:	2013-10-07 2:00pm - 2:30pm
Room:	Akimel Ballroom 3 & 4
Presenters:	Speakers: Girish Chandran Girish is currently the Chief Technical Officer of the Commercial Networks Segment at ViaSat and was previously VP of Engineering at Newtec America, Amnis Systems and Tiernan Communications. He has lead teams designing multi-service network architectures, satellite ground systems, and multimedia communication products. He has several patents and has published papers in peer reviewed journals and conferences. He has a Ph.D in Electrical Engineering, from the University of California, San Diego.
Abstract:	Most airlines offer wireless Internet on some or all of their aircraft. In-flight connectivity, which was initially tailored to suit business travelers, has now become part of mainstream. JetBlue recently announced a free WiFi service with 12Mbps to each passenger. This is made possible with a new generation of high capacity Ka-band satellites that fundamentally alter the economics of aeronautical broadband. This talk will cover spot beam satellites, complexities of handoffs, and networking on the ground that are required for providing near-terrestrial performance to passengers.
