Bharti Airtel, India’s leading telecommunications services provider, announced that it had crossed the 10 million unique 5G user mark on its network. Airtel 5G Plus is available across all states in the country. The company is well poised to cover every town and key rural area with Airtel 5G services by the end of March 2024. In November 2022, Airtel became the first and only operator to have 1 million unique customers on its network within 30 days of its commercial launch.

Randeep Sekhon, CTO, Bharti Airtel, said “These are early days, but we are thrilled with the response we have received from our customers. Airtel will continue to stay true to its commitment to build a more connected, equitable and sustainable network. With cutting edge 5G infrastructure, a fantastic partner ecosystem and a dedicated workforce that is customer obsessed, we believe we are in the right path to win and deliver a world-class 5G Plus experience to customers across the length and breadth of the country.”


Airtel 5G Plus has three compelling advantages for customers. First, it runs on a technology that has the widest acceptance in the world with the most developed ecosystem. This ensures that all 5G smartphones in India seamlessly work on the Airtel network. Second, the company promises to deliver the best experience – between 20 to 30 times higher speeds than today, coupled with brilliant voice experience and super-fast call connect. Finally, Airtel 5G Plus network will also be kinder to the environment with its special power reduction solution.

In the last year, Airtel has demonstrated the power of 5G with a host of powerful use cases that will change the way customers lead their lives and do business. From India’s first live 5G network in Hyderabad to India’s first private 5G network at the BOSCH facility in Bengaluru to partnering with Mahindra & Mahindra to make its Chakan manufacturing facility, India’s first 5G enabled auto manufacturing unit, Airtel has been at the forefront of 5G innovation.

Satellite constellations are advanced networks of strategically placed satellites designed to offer extensive global coverage, overcoming the limitations of single satellite systems. They’re pivotal in global communications, particularly in the era of 5G, enabling high-speed, low-latency connections. Different constellations operate at varying altitudes – Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO), Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) – each with unique benefits and challenges. As 5G emerges, these constellations will not only provide ultra-fast connectivity but will also bridge the digital divide, ensuring all corners of the world have access. Companies like SpaceX’s Starlink and Amazon’s Project Kuiper are pioneering efforts in this realm. However, while the opportunities are vast, challenges like interference management, space debris, and regulatory hurdles remain.
The emergence of 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) presents a revolutionary step in global digital connectivity, but it brings with it intricate regulatory and policy challenges. These directives play a pivotal role, influencing the design, services, and the very integrity of these networks. Key issues range from spectrum allocation and licensing to operational standards and the potential cyber threats these networks might face. Given the global nature of 5G NTN, coordinating regulations across international boundaries becomes paramount, as does addressing the growing concerns of space debris. Moreover, with the vast amount of data these networks handle, policies ensuring data privacy and cybersecurity are of utmost importance. Ultimately, understanding and navigating this complex regulatory landscape is crucial for the successful deployment and operation of 5G NTN.
5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) promise a new horizon in global communication with high-speed, low-latency features. Yet, as they usher in this new era, they also introduce significant security and privacy challenges. Key vulnerabilities, such as signal jamming, spoofing, and eavesdropping, pose risks to data integrity and user privacy. Addressing these threats demands a layered approach, utilizing advanced cryptographic methods, intrusion detection systems, and innovative AI/ML techniques. As we navigate the future of 5G NTN, it’s crucial to prioritize user security and privacy, balancing the immense potential of these networks with the inherent risks they present.
