Abstract

The Mexican government announced the creation of the Satellite System (Mexsat) for national security and telecommunications services in Mexico thus aims to put into orbit the satellite Mexsat 2 (Boeing 702HP) in July 2012, through the Russian spacecraft Proton-M in the position 116.8W, which will have with 40 transponders for Ku band, and 24 for C band, this satellite will replace Satmex 5. Mexsat 3 will be put in orbit by the Ariane Space Company onboard the spacecraft Ariane 5 from Kourou Space Centre in French Guiana in the position of 114.9W, It will have 12 transponders for the KU band and 12 for the C band, with a weight about 30550 kilos and a life time about 15 years, Mexsat will replace Soliadridad 2. By 2014 Mexsat 1 will replace Satmex 6 in the orbit 113W. Three satellites will be built by Boeing Space Enterprise and Intelligence Systems, two of them for mobile services and other for fixed services; two earth stations; operation network systems and geostationary user terminals per 1000 million dollars. The current fixed and mobile communications systems services which are based on a variety of satellite systems offer the transmission and reception of voice, audio, video, broadband data etc., thus means that the satellite systems need continue providing an efficient service, and developing technologies. There are several model of planning i.e. those of George Steiner, Rusell Ackoff and Hazan Ozbeckhan, The latter was chosen because in the first stage allow to detect problems, however the other ones spouse that already exist and have to solve them. The detection of the causes which origin these problems and the possible solution strategies for Technological Management of Mexican Satellite System was made through the use of this model, based on the standards, conventions and national and international regulations. Keywords: Satellite, Mexsat, technological management, Mexican satellite system.
