Exploring the Intersection of 5G IoT and Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) | Enabling a Smarter World
Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), including satellite and related platforms, amplify the reach of 5G IoT, providing connectivity in remote or disaster-hit areas. With potential applications ranging from remote industrial monitoring to precision farming, the combination of 5G and IoT is ushering in a new era of digital transformation. Yet, challenges like scalability, energy efficiency, and security remain to be addressed, and innovations in edge computing, AI, and advanced communication technologies pave the way forward.

Building the Business Case for Satellite IoT | Astrocast
Organizations globally are tapping into the vast potential of the Operational IoT market, from transforming weather monitoring in remote mines to ensuring safe drinking water in African communities. The real game-changer is the integration of reliable, cost-effective satellite connections, predicted to rise to tens of millions by 2030. These connections make it possible to transmit data periodically rather than in real-time, reducing costs and meeting the specific needs of industries like agriculture, shipping, and environmental monitoring. The challenge for Systems Integrators (SIs) is to ensure their Satellite IoT deployments are not only technologically viable but also commercially successful. Ensuring robust satellite coverage, cost-effective deployment, and prolonged battery life are essential to this business case. Forward-thinking SIs have already started their journeys, optimizing Satellite IoT solutions, proving its business worth, and preparing for large-scale deployments.

5G and 6G | Future of communications has already started today | ReOrbit
The space industry should reach $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2040, according to a report by Citibank analysts. At the same time, a recent report from Inmarsat and Globant estimates the world could reach net zero up to ten years ahead of the 2050 target if industries make the most of existing and emerging space-based satellite technology. Suffice to say, space can offer an array of solutions for sustainability, security and connectivity. Mobile communications have evolved from generation to generation, adding better capabilities, and the trend is far from being over. The sixth generation is already in the making, and the core driving factors for 6G will revolve around enhancing human communication, including immersive experience, telepresence, multimodal collaboration and interaction. 6G will also aim to enhance machine communication, with the focus on autonomous machines and vehicles capable of sensing their surrounding environment in real time (network as a sensor). This article expands on how small satellites will augment the future of communications that starts already today.
