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.

Philip Nugent
Mpirical Trainer
Phil heads up Mpirical’s technical development, advising on the latest technologies and assisting the Mpirical team with his wealth of both historical and current knowledge. Phil’s specialist area is the mobile radio and RAN space, originally focussing on 2G and 3G technologies but more recently, heavily embedded with 5G New Radio for both Mpirical and customer specific projects.
