ESA – under its Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems (ARTES)’ Space for 5G/6G & Sustainable Connectivity programme line – selected TESAT for a pioneering 6G satellite precursor.
The goal of the project is to deliver an in-orbit laboratory, gaining knowledge on End-to-End-Connectivity and the inclusion of satellites in terrestrial mobile networks. It is expected that the result will bring valuable information for the 6G standardization. 6G applications can boost the technological potential of the European digital and aerospace industry and broadband connectivity even further. This opens up growth potential and applications beyond imagination.
Unlimited worldwide access to the internet through seamless network availability is only possible if terrestrial networks are connected to additional network points from space. This project is laying the foundations for future communication technology, namely space-based communication hubs with extremely high-data rates for Europe's digital future.
The 6G LINO (6G laboratory in orbit) will produce a 16U CubeSat - a small satellite with specific dimensions - and bring it to a low earth orbit. A satellite of this length is similar in size to a small refrigerator. In addition, a full 5G-based ground segment including a core network will be set up to allow end-to-end tests, which will include the satellite.

📣 Partnership Annoucement 🛰️
iLAuNCH Trailblazer x Inovor Technologies
Satellites rely on radio systems to generate, transmit, receive and process signals. Satellites are akin to computers in the sky, and radio communication serves as their primary means of interaction with us on the ground. Naturally, when communicating with any type of computer, more data is advantageous, and satellites are no exception! The iLAuNCH Trailblazer project brings together The Australian National University and Inovor to develop resilient radio links to ground stations and for inter-satellite communication.
The project will develop and qualify a satellite-based Software Defined Radio for an on orbit demonstration of capability.
All these critical components, will be crafted within our facilities, to establish a sovereign edge, reinforcing our ability to maximise mission assurance ✨
Matthew Tetlow | Darin Lovett#InovorTech#SATCOMM#Collaboration#Partnership#SpaceInAustralia
To make SATCOMM more resilient, Inovor Technologies and The Australian National University are co-developing a new software-defined radio (SDR) solution that is set to be onboard all of Inovor’s locally manufactured satellites. 🛰
iLAuNCH Trailblazer ED Darin Lovett remarked that this project will demonstrate critical space-flight heritage, paving the way for exports.
“These SDRs are being designed to resist the extreme temperatures and radiation levels of space and will be able to position satellites more accurately post launch and feed control information to the onboard maneuvering system,” said Inovor CEO and Founder, Matthew Tetlow.
“We are employing a postdoc fellow who will extend our R&D beyond simulation technologies for ground testing. We will also enhance the system’s ability to maintain resilient radio links, regardless of the interference encountered,” said ANU Lead of Information and Signal Processing Cluster, Associate Professor Nan Yang.

5G is giving the convergence of terrestrial and satellite-based networks a major boost. Under the keyword "Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN)", satellites are being consistently integrated into the mobile communications standard for the first time, subsequently paving the way for a global and dense communication network in the future 6G generation. Both sides benefit from this: not only does it mean terrestrial cellular networks can count on satellite support to overcome any range limitations, it also gives the satellite industry the opportunity to expand its offering of services far beyond the provision of satellite TV and internet. For example, the automotive industry and the Internet of Things benefit from seamless connectivity with NTN.
