Satellite + cellular IoT is no longer a future concept. It’s here. In this webinar, ipXchange, Nordic Semiconductor, and Sateliot will introduce design engineers to Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and show how you can start building direct-to-satellite NB-IoT applications using Nordic’s nRF9151 and Sateliot’s satellite network.
You’ll learn how to use the new nRF9151 NTN modem firmware, which unlocks direct-to-satellite NB-IoT NTN capabilities, and how you can move from unboxing your development kit to sending your first satellite message in minutes.
We’ll also cover the real engineering challenges—latency, intermittent availability, antenna constraints, and hybrid designs—showing how terrestrial networks are used when available, and NTN when they’re not.
Also, Sateliot will demonstrate their satellite links, and what to expect when it comes to coverage and transmission cadence.
What you’ll learn:
- What NTN is and how it differs from traditional LTE-M/NB-IoT connectivity
- How the new nRF9151 NTN modem firmware enables direct-to-satellite NB-IoT connectivity
- The role of cadence, coverage, and antenna placement in NTN design
- Real-world challenges in NTN: latency, intermittent availability, and design patterns
- How to quickly move from development kit to first message over satellite
- How to integrate terrestrial and NTN networks in hybrid IoT designs
