Hughes Network Systems successfully test 5G Satellite Backhaul

Hughes Network Systems, LLC an innovator in satellite and multi-transport technologies and networks has announced the successful testing of 5G satellite backhaul with the company’s JUPITER System ground platform.

Over a series of tests at its Germantown, MD, gateway, Hughes engineers connected 5G smartphones to the internet with JUPITER System infrastructure including a very small aperture terminal (VSAT), gateway and high throughput satellite.

The tests were conducted across the deployable, standards-based 5G Open RAN-compliant system from COMSovereign, a U.S.-based developer of 4G LTE advanced and 5G communication systems and solutions.

The same system is in use by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) for the evaluation and demonstration of 5G systems.

The tests validated the compatibility of the Hughes technology with a 5G open radio access network (O-RAN) system, representative of any 3GPP standards-based, and standalone 5G deployment, the company said.

“These interoperability tests confirm the suitability and ease of employing the JUPITER System for 5G cellular backhaul. We’ve built our ground platform to be future-proof, so customers have a roadmap to transition from LTE traffic today to 5G tomorrow, with the ease of a software update,” said Bhanu Durvasula, Vice President, International Division at Hughes.

Around the world, mobile network operators currently employ JUPITER System equipment to power thousands of backhaul sites for 2G, 3G and LTE traffic – now with a clear path to 5G.

“In our ever-connected world, satellites play an essential role in helping mobile network operators serve customers everywhere, even in places where terrestrial solutions are not feasible. Satellite provides resiliency for terrestrial networks during peak hours and emergencies and, as part of the 5G network of networks, will also fill the gaps in terrestrial systems,” added Durvasula.

“We look forward to potential opportunities to work with Hughes and to assist the entire satellite communications industry in harnessing state-of-the-art 5G and beyond technology. Satellite and mobile operators can deploy our 5G solution on their existing hardware without disrupting their architectures, along with the excellent quality of experience and maximum utilisation of available bandwidth,” said Dr. Dustin McIntire, CTO of COMSovereign.
