Why not join us for a trip down memory lane from 1G to 5G with Jim Baddoo  who is a senior expert in Thales with more than 30 years of experience in radio communications systems 5G is not just a faster version of 4G! It represents a major step forward in mobile communications.  Jim will cover the key features and technologies of 5G and the additional capabilities they provide. Finally, he will give an overview of the integration of non-terrestrial networks into 5G, including the use of satellites

The lecture is organised by the London Hammersmith Network and will be held at Novotel London West at 7pm on 20th September 2022. Register at https://events.theiet.org/events/5g-and-non-terrestrial-networks/

  • A great evening!  Excellent talk by Jim Baddoo and energetic networking after the meeting. I've attached a copy of the slides for those who couldn't attend (and those who wish to refresh their memory!).

  • Hi Paul and Gerard. I'm afraid we currently don't have the resources to (properly) record the event.  Maybe we can sort something out for future events.

  • Looks really interesting - but I'm not in the UK. I would like this to be available online too!

    I had a 2 year contract with SES SA to help introduce Satellite Access into 3GPP 5G. I brought the (terrestrial) mobile core knowledge and SES the satellite expertise. The activity was led by experts from Thales in Toulouse - they did a great job (and still do today!)

  • Hi,  Excellent topic too. I recall my many happy years with 1G!  yes analog mobile.  Any chance this could be  streamed or made available on line?  Not practical to get to London for an evening slot and online so much more convenient too.
