Non-Terrestrial Networks

Join us in this groundbreaking initiative aimed at transforming mobile and satellite communications.

Let’s bridge the gap between satellite and terrestrial netowrks together!

Become a part of our NTN community

Community objectives:

Promote the integration of the Terrestrial Network (TN) and Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) technologies to help accelerate TN & NTN adoption and seamless interworking and handover.
Share experiences from pre-commercial trials and service launches.
Improve awareness of the key activities and key issues. Hence the group can invite also non GSMA-members, e.g., associations or industry fora to share their experience of TN & NTN integration for sharing success and failure stories.
Identify key areas of focus and inform relevant GSMA Working Groups or external stakeholders.
