Satellite deployment through two layer functions model to solve national supply and demand gap of capacity in indonesia

Satellite is a a vital infrastructure for national security, national telecommunication infrastructure, broadcasting service, and earth observation purposes. Satellite pre-launching processes are the most and critical stages that should be government be involved significantly. Pre-launching stages are API/A process, Satellite Coordination process, Res 49 process, Notification process, and Satellite Launching process. Indonesian new government has a Nawacita program should be supported by national telecommunication infrastructure specially using satellite. Indonesian satellite market showed supply and demand gap condition, where the most of satellite usage was provided by foreign satellites. There were 34 for foreign satellites used in Indonesia that served by 15 countries. Currently, Indonesia used foreign satellite capacity is equal to 5 foreign satellites. In this paper, satellite deployment satellite model in Indonesia is developed by government investment budget that we called "layer one". The whole processes should follow Radio Regulations was setted up by ITU When "layer one" as a government function is completed and satellite capacity is ready be delivered to the users, then private companies, or government enterprises that already be selected by the government deliver that capacity. The selection of the operators could be through an auction, or others of selection method. The function of private company or government enterprises delivery satellite capacity or satellite service to their customers its called "layer two". Based on the result of interview be conducted, the problem with Indonesian satellite operators such as : lag of investment, inword looking orientation, and too many national satellite operators with minimum real satellite in operate.
