SatixFy says demonstrated 5G backhaul with OneWeb’s LEO constellation

NEW DELHI: Satellite communication systems provider SatixFy Technology said it has successfully demonstrated 5G backhaul communications connected to a low-earth-orbit satellite constellation operated by OneWeb, using a compact electronic antenna.

“The demonstration involved a super-compact satellite terminal mounted on a car. The user terminal antenna performed several satellite and beam handovers, along with frequency hopping over the OneWeb LEO network at 1,200 km, while maintaining a simultaneous and continuous link with a GEO satellite at an altitude of 36,000 Km. Live 4K UHDTV video and audio streaming took place from the GEO satellite,” SatixFy said in a statement.
