Course Details

This course provides a comprehensive overview of NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) IoT (Internet of Things). It focusses on NB-IoT NTN, discussing connectivity, performance targets, and deployment strategies. It explores real-world use cases across industries and remote environments while diving into technical aspects like satellite bands, coexistence, and NTN-related parameters. Operational topics include roaming, RAN sharing, timing and synchronization, QoS management, and supporting discontinuous coverage, equipping learners with a rounded view of NB-IoT NTN solutions.
