Bellevue, Washington. – July 20, 2023: Satellites can power 5G networks by providing coverage beyond ground-based infrastructure and solving difficult use cases. Today, 5G Americas, his voice for 5G and beyond in the Americas, releases the long-awaited “Update on 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks.” It provides an update on current developments in the growth of partnerships and technologies related to non-terrestrial network integration. Based on our previous whitepaper on the subject, we will be using a 5G network.
“By leveraging the dynamic potential of 5G and integrating non-terrestrial elements into wireless cellular networks using 3GPP standards, we can unlock unprecedented coverage,” said Chris Pearson, president of 5G Americas. It opens up the possibility of addressing new use cases.”
By mid-2023, non-terrestrial networks (NTN) will be a growing market with diverse technical and commercial strategies. 5G NTN leverages satellites on the access side of the mobile network to provide mobile services to terrestrial users, enabling high-speed wireless access to remote locations.
5G Non-Terrestrial Networks Update examines the growing ecosystem of providers and partnerships between NTN service providers and terrestrial-based mobile phone providers. Additionally, it focuses on satellite constellations operating in his three major domains: broadband and internet services, IoT connectivity, and Direct-to-Cell applications.
In this 5G Americas report, key topics related to NTN networks include:
- Current status of NTN network
- Architectural Paradigm Update
- Standardization of 5G NTN in 3GPP
- New Radio (NR) and IoT support NTN in Release 17
- NTN Enhancements in 3GPP Release 18
- New service possibilities with 3GPP NTN solutions
- Federal Communications Commission activities related to NTN
- Recommendations and conclusions
Luiz Abud, Head of Emerging Business and Partnerships at Nokia, said: “Today, the integration of 3GPP smartphones and NTN paves the way for exciting advancements in the 5G NTN standard. These developments within 3GPP have tremendous potential to amplify the efficiency and capabilities of LEO satellites. By revolutionizing the planet’s communications environment with unprecedented reliability, these advances will not only bridge the digital divide but also disrupt the global supply chain system. protect lives even in difficult scenarios.”
said Karri Kuoppamaki, senior vice president of network technology development and strategy at T-Mobile US. A constellation made up of thousands of satellites. These advanced systems provide high-performance broadband access even in remote locations and are evolving to support direct communication with existing smartphones. The future holds great promise as NTN and 5G continue to evolve and synergize to enable unprecedented connectivity. ”
