Transformative innovation designed to address the scalability and efficiency challenges of non-terrestrial networks (NTNs).
Semantic scheduling and goal-oriented queuing into the communication stack, optimizing both uplink effiency and data relevance.
The Satellite Relay builds on the FRESHDATA’s expertise in LPWAN technologies and goal oriented communication to redefine satellite IoT communication.
The Challenge
Intermittent Connectivity: IoT devices ofter experience brief satellite visibility, leading to contention among nodes and delayed or lost transmissions.
Bursty Data Flows: Large columes of low-priority or redundant data flood the network, consuming bandwidth and energy.
Scalability Bottlenecks: Existing satellite protocols fail to adept dynamically to increasing IoT device density, causing queuing delays and packet loss.
The Solution
Semantic Scheduling at the MAC Layer: The relay prioritizes data based on its relevence, ensuring that critical and timesensitive packets are transmitted first.
Efficient Uplink Performance: By aggregating and intelligently prioritizing ground communication, the relay alleviates the uplink bottleneck while reducing redundant transmssions.
Scalability and Energy Efficiency: The relay operates seamlessly with existing IoT devices and commercial LoRaWAN hardware, enabling low-power communication and reducing the operational costs of satellite IoT networks.
