Brazil’s National Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL) Clears Omnispace’s Brazilian Subsidiary to Sell Mobile Satellite Capacity in Brazil

TYSONS, Va., Feb. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Omnispace LLC, the company redefining global mobile connectivity, today announced that on December 14, 2023, Brazil’s National Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL) approved its subsidiary Omnispace Comunicações Brasil Ltda’s request to operate its non-geostationary satellite (NGSO) system nationwide.  After conducting a public consultation and technical reviews, ANATEL determined that Omnispace meets the requirements to utilize the S-band (1980-2010 MHz / 2170-2200 MHz) in line with the ITU Radio Regulations global Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) allocation and the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) n256 band specifications.

This regulatory milestone adds to Omnispace’s growing global portfolio of countries where it has achieved regulatory approvals and spectrum access. In total, Omnispace now has market access to reach more than 735 million people across Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Together with partners that have spectrum access in 3GPP 5G NTN bands, Omnispace is poised to deliver access in all major international markets as part of a next generation global 5G NGSO system.

Since 2019, Omnispace Comunicações Brasil has demonstrated its NGSO MSS and IoT capabilities on its current system through a series of experimental licenses in Brazil. The pilot projects included showcasing MSS on a ship that journeyed more than 44,000 kilometers on the Amazon and Madeira Rivers to provide connectivity throughout those remote areas that do not have access to terrestrial mobile connectivity.  Omnispace also conducted vehicle tracking and Internet of Things (IoT) pilot projects in the state of São Paulo to test direct-to-device (D2D) communications. Omnispace is the first company to successfully conduct mobile satellite tests in the S-band in Brazil and will now be the first satellite operator licensed in Brazil for this band with an operational system.

“We look forward to providing MSS and IoT services in Brazil, which is at the forefront of the global stage for creating a harmonized S-band MSS ecosystem,” said Ram Viswanathan, President and CEO for Omnispace LLC. “This approval by ANATEL is a key component in accelerating our vision to unlock the full potential of direct-to-device connectivity globally leveraging standards-based technology. Brazil is part of a global map of countries and spectrum access that we have assembled, putting us closer to creating the necessary foundation for an exceptional voice, text, and data experience.” 

“Obtaining an authorization to operate in Brazil has been one of my primary objectives since I first joined Omnispace.  We are grateful for the diligence, transparency, technical capabilities, and global leadership of Brazil’s regulatory authority, ANATEL, in supporting spectrum efficiency and technologies that will benefit Brazilian consumers, businesses and the economy,” said Mindel De La Torre, Chief Regulatory and International Strategy Officer of Omnispace LLC. “We eagerly anticipate connecting rural and remote communities, and fostering economic, environmental, and educational opportunities through the widespread expansion of satellite communications across both the country and the region.”

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, Jan. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Lingnan University recently launched its inaugural seminar series “A Personal Perspective on Doing Good Research”. The series commenced with a seminar delivered by Prof S. Joe Qin, President and Wai Kee Kau Chair Professor of Data Science at Lingnan University, entitled “Doing Research to the Best of and Bigger Than Yourself”. Organised by the School of Graduate Studies (GS), this monthly event will feature presentations from senior university management and leading scholars, offering a platform for academics to share valuable insights and experiences from their personal research. The series aims to encourage productive discussions on best research practices, and offers participants opportunities to engage with leading scholars within the university.

The seminar attracted around 100 participants, including Vice-Presidents, Associate Vice-Presidents, faculty, and students. As a globally renowned expert in data science, industrial Artificial Intelligence (AI), and smart technologies, President Qin shared his academic experiences and valuable insights on conducting impactful research. He highlighted the shift towards citation-driven research influenced by academic publishers and university rankings, emphasising the need to focus on fundamental research that delivers near-term outcomes. Through personal experience of submissions being rejected, he encouraged the audience to aim for impactful contributions that extend beyond individual achievements.

President Qin expressed gratitude for and emphasised the importance of the support and wisdom of mentors and colleagues. He also posed questions for young scholars to consider regarding their development within the faculty and the university, such as how to adapt to new developments in their research areas. He advised scholars to think about their long-term goals and societal contributions, stressing the importance of future planning over immediate achievements.

“Embrace the big picture, plan for the future, and keep in mind that while ideas may have been thought of before, the challenge lies in reimagining them. Ultimately, strive to make meaningful contributions to society—this is how we give back,” he said.

With over 470 publications and 12 US patents, President Qin has made significant contributions to his field of expertise. His research achievements include more than 41,500 citations on Google Scholar and an impressive H-index of 89, solidifying his position as a leading figure in the field.
