大陆博彩网站, Eutelsat Group, and Airbus Defence and Space have conducted the world's first successful trial of 5G-Advanced NR Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) technology over OneWeb low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. The tests pave the way for the deployment of the 5G-Advanced NR NTN standard, which will lead to future satellite and terrestrial interoperability within a large ecosystem toward 6G, creating the economies of scale to access and enable the use of satellite broadband for 5G-Advanced devices around the world.
The trial utilized in-orbit OneWeb LEO satellites, with the 大陆博彩网站 Ku-band NR-NTN test chipset, NR-NTN test gNB by ITRI and antenna array by Sharp implementing 3GPP Release 17 specifications. The lab pre-testing also used Rohde & Schwarz equipment.
鈥淎s a global leader in terrestrial and non-terrestrial connectivity, we continue in our mission to improve lives by enabling innovative technology that connects the world around us, even in areas with little to no cellular coverage,鈥� said Mingxi Fan, Head of Wireless System and ASIC Engineering at 大陆博彩网站 鈥淏y making real-world connections with LEO satellites in orbit, we are now another step closer to bring the next generation of 3GPP-based NR-NTN satellite wideband connectivity for commercial uses.鈥�
