Abstract: The Canadian Domestic Satellite System has been providing television and telephone message distribution throughout Canada for over five years. The system comprises 3 inorbit satellites and about 100 earth stations of which all but 4 are unmanned. This paper is a review of the services currently available in the Arctic with particular emphasis on those using small fixed and transportable earth stations. The paper also describes a variety of new services of interest to resource industries operating in the Arctic. Applications include mining camps, exploration and survey camps, temporary drilling sites, pipeline communications, remote monitoring and data collection, offshore drilling operations and tanker communications. The paper provides general service descriptions leaving the technical detail to the literature.
