Abstract:
Traditional perceptions of satellite communications often conjure images of large antennas facilitating one-way communication. However, with the evolution of IoT satellite technologies, bidirectional communication and compact embedded antennas have become feasible, revolutionizing connectivity in remote and challenging environments. This paper explores the capabilities of EchoStar Mobile LoRaWAN® over satellite, highlighting the potential for bi-directional communication and the integration of KYOCERA AVX small chip embedded antennas within IoT devices. Through a case study, we demonstrate the functionality and effectiveness of this antenna solution in real-world applications, showcasing their role in advancing IoT satellite communications and enabling seamless connectivity across diverse landscapes.
