The Potential of Satellite Internet Technologies for Crisis Management During Urban Evacuation

This study examines the potential of satellite internet technologies to enhance crisis management in urban evacuation scenarios in Italy, with a specific focus on the Starlink system as a case study. In emergency situations, traditional mobile and WiFi networks often become inaccessible, significantly impairing timely communication and coordination.

Reliable connectivity is therefore imperative for effective rescue operations and public safety. This research analyzes how satellite-based internet can provide robust, uninterrupted connectivity even when conventional infrastructures fail. The study discusses operational advantages such as rapid deployment, broad coverage, and scalability during disasters, as well as key constraints including line-of-sight requirements, environmental sensitivity, and regulatory challenges.

Empirical findings from the deployment of Starlink during an actual urban evacuation event in Italy indicate that latency dropped below 200 ms and sustained upload/download speeds averaged approximately 50 Mbps-up to three times faster than ground networks in disrupted zones. By evaluating both benefits and limitations, this paper provides a comprehensive understanding of the integration of satellite internet services within Italian emergency response systems, aiming to improve the performance of urban evacuation strategies.

Global Lighthouse Network

Smart, sustainable manufacturing: 3 lessons from the Global Lighthouse Network Launched in 2018, when more than 70% of factories struggled to scale digital transformation beyond isolated pilots, the Global Lighthouse Network set out to identify the world’s most advanced production sites and create a shared learning journey to up-level the global manufacturing community. In the past seven years, the network has grown from 16 to 201 industrial sites in more than 30 countries and 35 sectors, including the latest cohort of 13 new sites. This growing community of organizations is setting new standards for operational excellence, leveraging advanced technologies to drive growth, productivity, resilience and environmental sustainability. But what exactly is a Global Lighthouse and what has the network achieved? What is the Global Lighthouse Network? The Global Lighthouse Network is a community of operational facilities and value chains that harness digital technologies at scale to ac...

Multi-Modal Data

Multi-Task Federated Split Learning Across Multi-Modal Data with Privacy Preservation With the advancement of federated learning (FL), there is a growing demand for schemes that support multi-task learning on multi-modal data while ensuring robust privacy protection, especially in applications like intelligent connected vehicles. Traditional FL schemes often struggle with the complexities introduced by multi-modal data and diverse task requirements, such as increased communication overhead and computational burdens. In this paper, we propose a novel privacy-preserving scheme for multi-task federated split learning across multi-modal data (MTFSLaMM). Our approach leverages the principles of split learning to partition models between clients and servers, employing a modular design that reduces computational demands on resource-constrained clients. To ensure data privacy, we integrate differential privacy to protect intermediate data and employ homomorphic encryption to safeguard client m...

Satellite Communications

3D printed and circularly polarized 28 GHz patch antenna array for small satellite communications This paper presents the design, fabrication, and testing of a high-gain compact 2 × 2 circularly polarized patch antenna array using 3D printing technology for small satellite 5G communication at 28 GHz. The proposed antenna demonstrates high efficiency and a low profile, addressing the limitations in design flexibility associated with traditional PCB fabrication methods . The 2 × 2 array configuration, incorporating via fences, coaxial vertical feedlines, and a sequentially rotated phased feed network, enhances the antenna's bandwidth and axial ratio bandwidth while maintaining compactness, crucial for space-constrained satellite applications. Simulations optimized key antenna parameters, including reflection coefficient , gain, and axial ratio. Measurement results validated the simulations, showing an impedance bandwidth of 6.8 GHz and an axial ratio bandwidth of 3.1 GHz, with a ...
