Handover (mobility) is a process of transferring an ongoing communication session of a user equipment (UE) from one cell (i.e., base station or gNodeB (gNB)) to another cell in connected state. The primary motivation behind handover is to ensure seamless connectivity and continuity of service for the user, especially while the user is on the … Read more
In 3GPP Release 17, the Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) work item was introduced. The NTN refers to a network or segment of networks using radio frequency (RF) resources on board a satellite (or Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) platform). The key concept in the NTN is that the NTN cells are provided from Non-Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) satellites, … Read more

Reliable access to broadband services for every person (and everything) everywhere has been a reoccurring discussion for developing any modern cellular technologies. Despite substantial successes of 4G and 5G cellular systems, there are still unserved and underserved populations. Measurements reveal up to 400 million people around the world still encounter difficulties to enjoying stable and … Read more
Non-terrestrial network (NTN) is an umbrella term that encompasses cellular communication networks served by base stations floating in air. Low orbit flying objects, such as drones and uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV) to higher orbit satellites make up the majority of NTN enablers. NTN may also include flying end-users, for example, airplanes in an air-to-ground (ATG) … Read more
