5G NTN is helping transform satellite connectivity from a niche capability into a scalable, revenue generating extension of terrestrial networks, with the potential to support service continuity between satellite and terrestrial coverage. At the heart of this evolution is Direct-to-Device satellite (D2D) communication, which is rapidly gaining global traction, unevenly though. While 5G NTN is […] The post D2D satellite applications: How 5G NTN bridges the gap for satellite operators appeared first on BICS .
