📢 📺 Watch ON-DEMAND https://lnkd.in/es292MH4 GSOA's webinar addressing the vital challenges and innovative solutions surrounding the standardisation of #FPAs - 'Navigating Commercial Pressures: The Importance of Standardised Testing', produced in association with Satcoms Innovation Group (SIG). Participants highlighted the urgent need for uniform data sets to meet customer expectations and environmental regulations, along with the importance of early testing and simulation. They also tackled key issues like measuring radiation patterns and managing thermal performance. 🛰️📡📊What challenges are antenna manufacturers currently facing, and how do satellite operators and testing entities perceive these issues? There is a growing consensus that standardisation is essential, but how can we move toward achieving it? ↗️ If you missed the live event, you can now catch the full video and gain valuable insights into these pressing issues.

Adoption of 5G NTN global standards is key for the future of Direct-to-Device (D2D). Join us in the discussion 👉 https://lnkd.in/gT-DZnh7

EVENT ESA "Workshop: Direct-to-device connectivity: an opportunity for Europe - Direct-to-device (D2D) connectivity holds the promise of a new era of mass-market satellite connectivity. With the potential to reach smartphones in the pockets of billions of consumers around the globe, as well as all other mobile devices – from vehicles to machinery to planes – D2D may help close connectivity gaps and generate billions of euros in the process. So far, a number of high-profile ventures, predominantly by non-European satellite operators, mobile network operators and handset makers, are introducing early variants of D2D solutions. Developing and deploying D2D services globally and in Europe entails significant, commercial and technical challenges, complex to navigate and bound by international regulatory roadmaps. In this context, ESA is currently scoping a D2D initiative designed to support European industry at large to develop end-to-end capabilities, up to into in-orbit-validation (IOV) of systems and services. This conference shall gather key industry and decision-makers to collectively: - Discuss the case for D2D deployment in Europe (use cases, benefits, cost of inaction). - Debate the pros and cons of various delivery models (e.g. use of MS or MSS) and resulting technical requirements. - Identify success factors and formulate recommendations to decision makers." https://lnkd.in/ezxhjtQy
