Consulting Service Details

MCNS has participated into several NB-IoT deployment and implementation projects (For further info please refer to projects) .
NB-IoT has special and unique requirements, leading into specific solutions and deployment practices.

It is worth mentioning that among other MCNS has extensive experience on terrestrial as well as satellite NB-IoT deployments.

MCNS NB-IoT consulting services include but not limited to:

NB-IoT RAN coverage analysis:

Full coverage geographical analysis and planning report exports, mapped to Google Earth for better service provisioning

NB-IoT RAN capacity Planning:

Excel automated files with full capacity (throughput) estimations including also mathematical models for outage probabilities and throughput estimations

NB-IoT RAN technology Selection:

Based on specific vendor HW and SW optional features (i.e. NOKIA, Ericsson or Huawei) MCNS can propose optional feature configurations and HW equipment selection

FAQ's

What is the major problem with NB-IoT over LEO satellites?

Doppler shifting is one of the major received signal distortion problems an engineer has to solve to have a sustainable communication on adequate throughput rate. Hence specific algorithms have to be invented to mathematically account for the Doppler effect as the satellites move and the signal distorts.

What about round-trip delay (RTD) for NB-IoT over LEO satellites?

By definition round-trip delay (RTD) represents the propagation time that the signal takes to be transmitted from the user to the base station and vice versa. In a terrestrial NB-IoT network, accounting for the largest cell size, the range of RTD is much less than 1 ms. In contrast, the RTD over a LEO satellite channel would be significantly higher, increasing the delay in the overall NB-IoT system. Clearly, the RTD would depend on the specific LEO orbit, ranging from 4-16 ms. This is not a big problem for Machine-Type Communications (MTC) or massive IoT case studies since thr expected throughput is quite limited to some measurement reports and short communication services. However from signaling perspective it might be beneficial to minimize the message exchange between the users and the base station to counterbalance the increased RTD.
Testimonials
Excellent services, making OQ's TECHNOLOGY vision possible

When founding OQ TECHNOLOGY it was indeed my vision to build the world’s first global satellite 5G IoT cellular coverage around the planet. Engaging MCNS in the kick-off project of implementing NB-IoT standards over LEO satellite link was the right thing to do at that period of time, giving the right impetus to my aspirations.
One of the key to our successful collaboration was the quality of MCNS team, working always hard to find the right answers to all challenges, being  proactive and always looking for the right solution.
Concluding i have to say that i am very pleased to collaborate with MCNS and i can say that i would do it again in the future whenever needed”
