Luxembourg's OQ Technology connects drones to its 5G satellite network
OQ Technology and Airbus say they achieved the first LEO 5G non-terrestrial-network connection to a flying drone, while a separate OQ test relayed edge-compressed video over its narrowband link. The throughput is tiny, and real-time HD video remains a stated future goal, but the standards-based, low-power approach is drawing defence interest and EU funding.
