Technical Code Development Workshop: Advancing Satellite and Free Space Optics Standards

The Malaysian Technical Standards Forum Bhd (MTSFB) under the Communications Terminal Working Group (CT WG) convened a Technical Code Development Workshop at Mercure Kuala Lumpur, Glenmarie from 27 to 28 August 2025. The two-day session gathered industry experts, academia, and stakeholders to deliberate on the development of new Technical Codes (TCs) that will support Malaysia’s future connectivity landscape.

Expert Sharing Sessions

The morning featured a series of insightful sharing sessions:

  1. Satellite – Geo Service by Encik Mohd Fawzy bin Ahmad Basir, Vice President Operation, TS Global Network Sdn Bhd.
  2. Satellite Technologies by Encik Nor Azimuddin Bin Arifin, Head of Business Operation Satellite Department, Binasat Digital Sdn Bhd.
  3. Free Space Optics (FSO) by Encik Mohd Johanis bin Mohd Jamil, TM Tech Services Sdn Bhd.

These sessions highlighted emerging technologies and their role in enabling reliable, scalable, and innovative communications solutions for Malaysia.

Draft Technical Codes Under Discussion

The workshop progressed into group discussions and breakout sessions, where draft leads presented and facilitated deliberations on two key draft TCs:

  1. Satellite Earth Station Terminal – Specifications
    Draft Lead: Assoc Prof Ir Dr Khairayu Badron, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM)
  1. Free Space Optics – Specifications
    Draft Lead: Prof Dr Razali bin Ngah, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM)

The development of these draft TCs is vital to ensuring that future satellite and optical communications systems are standardised, interoperable, and aligned with both national priorities and international best practices.

The workshop served as a platform for technical knowledge exchange and collaborative drafting, reflecting the CT WG’s commitment to advancing Malaysia’s communications terminal standards. These initiatives will strengthen the foundation for high-capacity, next-generation connectivity, supporting the nation’s digital transformation and long-term aspirations under MyDIGITAL and MyTMAP2030.
