Revolutionize Connectivity for Ubiquitous 5G

Technical challenges related to 5G non-terrestrial networks

5G non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) will provide ubiquitous 5G coverage by leveraging Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites and high-altitude platforms. Connecting to LEO satellites speeding at several kilometers per second and orbiting anywhere from 160 to 1,600 km above the Earth results in significant new technical challenges.
