The Mobile Satellite Services Association (MSSA) updated its Reference Architecture to address challenges in non-terrestrial networks (NTN) by focusing on regenerative payloads and supporting both 5G NR and NB-IoT services within single satellite constellations, aiming to improve interoperability and service efficiency.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Telecom & Connectivity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

NTN system builders can now align development around updated open standards that combine 5G NR and NB-IoT on shared satellites. You should review your satellite design to leverage the new reference architecture for improved resource efficiency and interoperability.
