Preface
The 4th International Conference on Personal Satellite Services (PSATS) was
held at the Norcroft Centre at the University of Bradford, UK, during March
22–23,2012.
The next-generation satellite services will cater to the demands of personal
services by bringing the satellite terminals directly to the hands of the user,
hence providing satellite personal services directly to the user. Technological
advances in satellite communications have made it possible to bring such value-
addedsatelliteservicesdirectlytotheuserbyreducingtheoverallcostaswellas
addressing several technological challenges. A new category defined as personal
satelliteservices(PSATS)extendssatelliteservicesdirectlytousersforpersonal
servicessuchascommunications,multimedia,andlocationidentification.PSATS
2012wasatwo-dayeventthatexploredsuchtechniquesandprovidedaplatform
for discussion between academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and
students interested in future techniques relating to satellite communications,
networking, technology, systems, and applications.
PSATS 2012boasts of two outstanding keynote speakers.We were fortunate
to have CosimoLa Rocca,Advisor to the Presidentofthe ItalianSpace Agency
ASI,Italy,andSurendraPal,ProfessorandSeniorAdviser,SatelliteNavigation,
IndianSpaceResearchOrganisation,India,asourkeynotespeakers.PSATS2012
alsoincludedtwotutorialsbyeminentexpertsinthearea.Thefirsttutorialtitled
“Quality of Service in Terrestrial Wireless and Satellite Networks for Mobile
PersonalServices”wasofferedbyGiovanniGiambene,UniversityofSiena,Italy.
The second tutorial titled “Resource Management in Cloud Computing” was
offered by Nicola Tonellotto, Information Science and Technologies Institute,
National Research Council of Italy.
PSATS2012includedfourtechnicalsessionsconsistingof22high-qualityreg-
ularpapersandonepostersessionwithfivepostersonadvancedtopicsinsatellite
communications.The fourtechnicalsessionsincluded:(1)Radio ResourceMan-
agement,(2) Spectrum/Interference Managementand Antenna Design, (3)Mo-
bility andSecurity,and (4) ProtocolPerformancein Satellite Networks.PSATS
2012 also included a panel discussion session on the topic: “The role of satel-
lites in future personal and vehicular communications.” This sessionprovided a
platform for sharing the views of the satellite operators, satellite research cen-
ters,SMEs,anduniversitiesonthefutureroleofsatellitecommunicationsinour
everyday life.
The conference hadcloseto 60participants bothfromthe industrialandthe
academicsectorsfromvariouspartsoftheworldsuchasIndia,France,Germany,
Greece, UK, and Italy. The conference providedtea and coffee breaks as well as
lunch at the conference centre for all the participants. A Gala Dinner event
was also organized on the first day of the conference. The quality of the venue,
