Mobile phones and data are pervasive, cell towers and radio masts are everywhere, yet 85% of the Earth's surface has no service. Satellites than are cheaper and more accessible than ever - surely we can fill this data void?
So what happens when you mix terrestrial and satellite networks? What are the opportunities? Can we get a seamless voice or data connection, or are the technologies incompatible, undeveloped or simple pie in the sky?
This event examines the crossover between technologies and systems, the services which can be offered - and those that can't. With a deep dive into the commercial and regulatory aspects of cross-board operation, spectrum planning, licensing ad other barriers. We delve into the nanosat revolution and what's driving the new services, and how to make these work with terrestrial devices. We close with a panel session to help bust the myths, to help us exploit the explosion of when 'Networks Collide'.
