Bahrain Space Agency and TRA Discuss Satellite Communication Cooperation
The Bahrain Space Agency team, led by Dr. Mohammed Al-Othman, met with representatives from the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) to explore new areas of cooperation in satellite communications and frequency registration.
During the meeting, both sides praised the successful submission of Bahrain’s satellite frequency file for the “Al-Munther” satellite to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), which was accepted in accordance with the highest global standards. The achievement reflects the growing technical expertise within both the Space Agency and the TRA.
The discussion also covered key topics such as allocating national frequencies for space use, aligning with international guidelines, and keeping pace with Bahrain’s rapidly evolving space ambitions.
Future collaboration in representing Bahrain at regional and international conferences on satellite frequency allocation was also highlighted.
Dr. Al-Othman described the partnership as a vital step in bolstering Bahrain’s regional and global standing in the space sector.
“Working together with the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority is essential to driving innovation and ensuring that Bahrain’s space projects meet international standards,” he said. “We thank the TRA for their continuous support and for hosting this important meeting.”
Engineer Hassan Mohammed, Director of Spectrum Management at TRA, echoed the sentiment.
“This meeting reflects our commitment to supporting the progress of Bahrain’s space initiatives and managing spectrum efficiently in line with global best practices,” he said. “We’re excited to keep building on this partnership with the Space Agency to achieve our shared goals.”
