Introduction to
Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN)

Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) are transforming the landscape of connectivity by leveraging satellite communication to bridge the coverage gap left by traditional cellular networks. With approximately 600 million people living outside the range of mobile networks, NTN offers a promising solution to provide reliable connectivity in remote and underserved areas.

As demand for global connectivity grows, NTN plays a crucial role in enabling seamless communication for industries such as maritime, aviation, agriculture, and emergency response. By integrating satellite and terrestrial networks, NTN ensures resilient and ubiquitous coverage, fostering digital inclusion worldwide.

The momentum in collaborations between traditional Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and satellite operators indicates that NTN will likely complement cellular networks rather than compete with them. Hybrid Cellular and Satellite devices are emerging, offering a combination of cellular and satellite connectivity for enhanced reliability and coverage.

Leading technology firms and regulatory bodies are also working to harmonize spectrum allocation and ensure interoperability between terrestrial and satellite networks. As enterprise adoption increases, industries such as logistics, agriculture, and defense are leveraging NTN for improved supply chain tracking, environmental monitoring, and secure communications, reinforcing its commercial viability.

Grain silos are high-capacity structures used for the storage of grain. They serve as grain collectors, storage, and distribution centers. Given the crucial role grains play in human nutrition, the storage phase in grain production is of utmost importance and demands careful handling. Traditional methods of measuring and sharing silo data are both manual and error-prone.



LvLogics, Skylo, Taoglas, and TxWireless, worked together to revolutionise grain storage measurement through a next-gen satellite connectivity transformation to address these challenges.
