Solution Overview

Scenarios and Problems

Insufficient mobile network coverage

From the perspective of global mobile communication network coverage, more than 80% of land areas and more than 95% of sea areas are left uncovered, and there is a significant digital gap among regions on earth.

Huge demand for emergency and IoT

The distribution of terrestrial cellular network coverage does not completely overlap with population distribution, there is a huge demand for emergency communication and IoT connectivity in all-areas.

High cost of satellite connection

Most of existing satellite communication systems are not international standardized, which needs transformation of technology, ecosystem, and market demands. However, the industry scale is limited due to high cost of satellite connections.

Advantages and Highlights

5G NTN technology

5G NTN is an integrated solution between satellite networks and terrestrial cellular networks that comply with 3GPP standards facilitates the formation of the scale of terminals and applications, reduces the cost of satellite connections, and achieves the coverage of the sky and sea level.

First 5G NTN verification

In August 2022, ZTE together with industry partners, conducted the world's first operator 5G NTN field verification, verifying the networking feasibility of high-orbit satellite transparent forwarding, the feasibility of NTN solving problems such as long delay and wide coverage, the capability of mobile and satellite direct-connection.

Complying with 3GPP standard

5G NTN supports voice/broadband data/IoT service and global operation, significantly reduces the cost of terminals. Compared with special satellite terminals and cellular+satellite dual-mode terminals, 5G NTN is based on 3GPP standard, has obvious advantages such as continuous technology evolution, and lower connection cost.

Business model advantages

A global network can be built to provide SMS, voice, Internet access, emergency call, and IoT services to meet the core market requirements of satellite IoT and emergency communication.

Customer Values

Facing society

NTN provides ubiquitous coverage and connections, builds a mobile phone-based public emergency communication network, and provides SMS, voice, Internet access, public emergency communication, wide area Internet of Things and etc.

Facing industry

NTN deeply integrates cellular communication and satellite communication. IoT terminals and smart phones connecting to satellites are developed. This trend forms economics of scale and drives down the price of satellite connections，maximizes the value of satellite and cellular networks.

Facing operators

NTN low-cost wide-coverage solution is provided through satellite network, so that there is no need to construct and maintain cellular base stations in remote areas and sea areas with sparse users. In this way, the construction and O&M costs for cellular network can be saved greatly.
