A path to global connectivity

Science & Technology

Context:

Integrating terrestrial 5G networks with LEO satellite networks is the next step in communication infrastructure.

Benefits of 5G and LEO SatNets:

5G	LEO SatNets
Higher radio frequency (28Ghz) Faster speed with more data transfer Low latency Millimeter wave spectrum (increases density) Improves coverage, speed and capacity	Seamless connectivity Various usages like military surveillance and public emergencies etc. Geographical coverage to unserved areas. Increasing the scope of connectivity

Combined benefits of LEO SatNets with terrestrial 5G network:

Seamless transition: Integration of 5G network with Leo satellite will enable a new way for seamless transition in case of public safety, disaster management, and emergency situations.
Bridging Digital Divide: Service ubiquity to provide 5G services in unserved and undeserved areas of the world, bridging the digital divide.
Scalability: Service scalability, utilizing the unique capabilities of SatNets in multicasting and broadcasting similar content over large geographical area.
