5G in maritime environments: VTT and partners push the boundaries of connectivity at sea
In an EU-funded project, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and partners have successfully demonstrated an innovative solution to improve the coverage and capacity of high-speed, low-latency 5G services beyond coastal areas. This is a groundbreaking step toward comprehensive maritime connectivity, enhancing communication, safety and passenger experience at sea.5G technology has transformed communication on land, providing high-speed data transfer and minimal latency. However, delivering these benefits at sea has remained challenging, and connectivity has traditionally been limited to
