How Does it Look ?

SaT5G - Satellite And Terrestrial network for 5G

Contributing to the 5GPPP use case “Broadband access everywhere”, SaT5G will foster the

implementation of solutions enabling the “plug and play” integration of satellite

communications in 5G networks.

To this aim, SaT5G will research and validate the key technology enablers through validation

and demonstration in live 5G testbeds.

Black Box vs Open

We’d like to have more open

elements to support further

developments in mMTC, uRLLC

-5G core

-5G UE

-5G BS

OAI is a possibility

In SaT5G we (Oulu testbed)

target for harmonized control and

user plane when satellite coms

is used instead of fiber between

BS and core
