Mobile Space Connectivity

Mobile space connectivity is rapidly evolving thanks to the increasing availability of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations that provide global coverage.

“Mobile satellite” enables direct connection to mobile devices, bypassing traditional wireless networks and ensuring Internet access even in the most remote and hard-to-reach areas.

Additionally, the integration between satellite connectivity and 5G networks in “direct-to-device” mode leads to innovative solutions for the “always-on connectivity” paradigm, which is crucial for ensuring continuous services on a global scale by traditional MNOs.

This approach is emerging as an ideal solution to enhance the resilience of communications, especially in scenarios where traditional networks may be vulnerable or unavailable, such as in isolated areas, military operations, or in the case of natural disasters.

How can we help

• We support operators and enterprises in exploring the opportunities offered by mobile satellite connectivity and in its integration with terrestrial 5G networks, through the identification of use cases.
• We assist Satellite Operators in navigating the regulatory and authorization processes for providing wireless satellite connectivity services.
  We support terrestrial wireless operators in developing partnerships for the deployment of hybrid earth-satellite architectures and in managing rollout projects.

Fixed Satellite Connectivity

Fixed space connectivity is becoming a key resource for supporting traditional network infrastructures, particularly in regions lacking stable network coverage. Satellites can serve as a backhaul network to support connectivity in rural or hard-to-reach areas, or as a primary infrastructure for remote networks, such as those for scientific research operations, natural resource extraction, or international missions.

Fixed space connectivity provides broadband that can handle large volumes of data traffic, ensuring operational continuity in scenarios where traditional infrastructures are insufficient or impossible to implement.

Additionally, one of the most promising areas of fixed space connectivity is its role as a backup for terrestrial networks. This function becomes crucial in sectors such as defense and critical communications, where network resilience is essential. Satellite connections offer a level of security and redundancy that can protect against outages, attacks, or natural disasters that disrupt terrestrial networks.

How can we help

• We support satellite operators in responding to public and private tenders for the sourcing of fixed connectivity solutions.
• We assist Large Enterprises and Public Administrations in defining architectures that integrate satellite connectivity with terrestrial infrastructures, optimizing coverage, capacity, and resilience.
• We support Large Enterprises and Public Administrations in selecting satellite providers, technologies, terminal suppliers, and connectivity services, identifying reliable and scalable solutions.
