Omnispace LLC and Lockheed Martin have entered into an agreement to jointly explore developing 5G capability from space.
Global 5G standards-based non-terrestrial network (NTN) would offer commercial, enterprise and government devices pervasive communications worldwide and potentially redefine mobile communications.
Omnispace’s vision is one global network that will combine the reach of non-geostationary orbit satellite constellation with the capacity of mobile wireless carrier networks. The 5G NTN will use Omnispace 2 GHz S-band spectrum rights and employ 3GPP standards to enable direct-to-device connectivity and interoperability. This hybrid 5G network would provide coverage and capacity to support essential applications requiring global communications.
Global 5G connectivity has a range of civil and commercial applications including defense, government and military use such as mobile joint all-domain interoperable communications.
Seamless, global 5G connectivity has a wide range of civil and commercial applications. It also brings the coverage and capacity to support defense, government and military use, including mobile joint all-domain interoperable communications.
The companies are collaborating to deliver a potential global 5G from space solution and claim it would be the first truly dual use 5G platform for commercial and government missions.
