Direct-to-Device (D2D) and Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) are enabling satellite operators, mobile network operators and government organisations to extend coverage, improve resilience and deliver communications services beyond the reach of terrestrial infrastructure. As D2D services move from demonstration to deployment, organisations must integrate satellite and terrestrial networks while managing increasingly complex operational requirements.
CGI combines expertise across satellite communications, telecoms and systems integration to help clients deploy secure, scalable D2D services. We support the integration of 5G Core, RAN and satellite systems, helping organisations deliver seamless connectivity across hybrid terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks.
Our capabilities include:
- D2D and NTN architecture design and integration
- 5G Core, RAN and satellite systems integration
- Multi-orbit orchestration across LEO, MEO and GEO networks
- Network operations, automation and service assurance
- Digital twins, simulation and operational validation
- Cyber security and resilient service management
