\"MSSA<\/p>\n

The Mobile Satellite Services Association (MSSA)<\/strong> and the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA)<\/strong> are pleased to announce an alliance to advance global collaboration in the integration of terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), particularly focusing on Direct-to-Device (D2D) and IoT services. This collaboration underscores both organizations\u2019 commitment to expanding the reach of mobile connectivity and addressing future mobility and transportation needs. <\/p>\n

The collaboration agreement establishes a framework for cooperation in areas such as technological research and development, spectrum management, and the integration of satellite and cellular networks. It combines 5GAA\u2019s leadership in automotive connectivity and MSSA\u2019s expertise in standards-based, open architecture NTNs (or satellite networks) that augment and extend the reach of terrestrial mobile networks while respecting and complying with the unique and disparate telecom regulatory frameworks of nations worldwide.<\/p>\n

Mark Dankberg<\/strong>, Chairman of <\/strong>MSSA<\/strong>, commented on the collaboration: \u201cThis alliance addresses one of the largest target markets for NTN augmentation of mobile networks and the automotive industry\u2019s demand for standards-based, open architecture solutions enabled by a 5G ecosystem including licensed satellite spectrum holders. Together, MSSA and 5GAA will play a crucial role in augmenting the coverage and capacity of terrestrial networks while also enhancing aspects such as safety, operating efficiency, convenience, and entertainment. And, MSSA is directly addressing not only the technical solutions but also a regulatory framework that will enable those solutions on a global basis. This is an exciting development for the future of both the satellite industry and the automotive industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johannes Springer, Director General of <\/strong>5GAA<\/strong>, added: \u201cThe collaboration with MSSA is a pivotal moment for the advancement of ubiquitous connected mobility. By making non-terrestrial networks interworking with our cellular technology, we can create more resilient, scalable solutions that meet the growing demand for safer, more efficient transportation systems. This alliance strengthens our ability to innovate and address critical challenges in connected and autonomous driving, road safety, and intelligent traffic management on a global scale.\u201d<\/p>\n

The agreement highlights both organizations\u2019 shared vision of creating efficient, scalable, standards-based, open architecture solutions while supporting a varied and disparate global regulatory framework. The collaboration will also focus on augmenting next-generation communication technologies, including Cellular-V2X, which will enable advanced road safety applications and connected mobility solutions for a global audience. The integration of non-terrestrial networks with automotive services is expected to enhance innovations such as autonomous driving and intelligent traffic management. MSSA and 5GAA will work closely together to share knowledge, coordinate technical and regulatory activities, and support the development of new applications for both automotive and broader mobile markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
