The project performed research and demonstrated in the areas of direct and indirect connectivity for satellite to show satellites to be beneficial in delivering content to the network edge, providing backhaul to cellular base-stations, improving the broadband experience to premises, and providing connectivity to aircraft moving platforms through emulated GEO and over-the-air MEO satellite connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>Particularly, i2CAT was part in the <strong>first demonstration of the 5G moving platform backhaul for aircraft connectivity and content distribution services<\/strong>. The testbed, led by Zodiac Inflight innovations with the cooperation of SES, Gilat, Quortus, Broadpeak and i2CAT, was successfully used for virtualised network services. A video recording provided a live demonstration of the SaT5G R&amp;D activities.<\/p>\n<p>Other demonstrations included local breakout content based on Broadpeak\u2019s content delivery service, with all services, managed and configured by the <strong>i2CAT\u2019s Terrestrial and Satellite coordination framework &#8211; TALENT<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop, which was attended by representatives from both the mobile, fixed network and satellite industries, discussed the future of satellites in 5G from both a technical as well as business viewpoint.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sat5g-project.eu\/sat5g-industry-day-27-november\/\">Read the full press release here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The SaT5G project announced yesterday the completion of several successful demonstrations of 5G over satellite&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7798,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8527","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
