Brief Description (Abstract):

Effective communication is an essential and vital need for successfully carrying out various day-to-day activities in modern life. It is very crucial during any expedition, especially for a remote place like Antarctica, providing link with motherland and rest of the world. Communication not only keeps the morale of expedition members high in this hazardous and coldest working conditions but is also instrumental in passing the scientific data to the parent organizations in time.

Status: Completed

Purpose: (a) INMARSAT based Telex, fax and telephone (round the clock). (b) INMARSAT based emails service. (c) INMARSAT based mobile communication around Maitri, India and world. (d) Video conferencing from Maitri to India with High Speed Data option of 56/64Kbps using ISDN through INMARSAT. (e) HF fixed and mobile services around Maitri and with India. (f) HF Weather fax reception. (g) Collection of data on HF propagation condition. (h) Experiments related to adaptive HF communication for improving the present HF communication. (i) Ham radio contact in 20 M, 15 M and 40 Meter Band around the globe to world familiarity from Ma?tri Station, Maritime Mobile and cooperation through Amateur Radio. (j) Installation of G P antenna in vehicles and field stations. (k) Installation of HF Log periodic wide band 14-30 MHz array antenna
