FAQ's

How is Satellite feasible for 5G backhaul?

Satellite Backhaul is a niche solution for MNOs and used in fringe areas (e.g. remote rural areas) and sometimes as an emergency/temporary measure (e.g. a disaster area or in place of a microwave link whilst waiting for licence approval). GEO satellites are cheaper nowadays and easier to send to orbit. Moreover LEO satellites are smaller than GEO satellites and they can be more easily launched into the stratosphere, contributing to low cost solutions. This backhaul is used as one of the main design in developing markets and as a complementary role in developed markets.

What about delay over satellite link?

Latency is a challenge as there a round trip delay of circa 500-600ms for a geostationary GEO satellite. Because LEO these satellites are orbiting closer to the surface, the round trip between the user and a base station is considerably shorter, in the order of around 40-60 milliseconds. This is supported by LTE and some applications of 5G (eMBB).
