Webinar: Beam hopping in DVB-S2X (March 2020)


In 2019, the DVB-S2X specification was updated to add support for beam hopping. In multi-beam satellite systems, beam hopping enables efficient and flexible use of satellite resources for applications such as VoIP, cellular backhaul, Internet of Things, maritime and in-flight connectivity and government.

This webinar explains how beam hopping fits into the DVB-S2X specification and some considerations for its implementation.
