AST SpaceMobile and Verizon partner on satellite service, Xona Space Systems and Sepentrio expand PNT solutions.

The satellite ground segment is going shared as GEO operators get financially squeezed and LEO satellites scale deployments. With multi-tenant access and pay as you go pricing, Ground Station as a Service (GSaaS) follows a model similar to data centers and tower companies, which makes it attractive to infrastructure investors.

Acknowledging the evolving geopolitical landscape, the growing ecological challenges posed by climate change, and the rapidly increasing reliance of the economic and defence sectors on GNSS, the demands on current and future PNT systems are rising dramatically. Among those novel technologies that can offer improved performance, greater autonomy, resilience and extended reach, laser-based connectivity for optical inter-satellite links (OISL) and optical ground-to-space links (OGSL) stand out as the most promising technology for PNT systems in the near to mid-term future. Already revolutionizing the field of satellite communications, optical link technologies are now poised to transform PNT systems and applications. Integrating optical technologies could mark the beginning of a new space era, and OpSTAR gives Europe the opportunity to lead the charge.
