SGS Taiwan becomes the first laboratory in Taiwan to obtain IoT-NTN RF verification qualification approval

SGS Taiwan is the first laboratory in Taiwan obtain IoT-NTN verification qualification approval

IoT-NTN is a wireless communication technology which uses non-terrestrial network(NTN) for IoT devices, it uses space carrier(space-borne) or high-altitude carriers(air-borne) to realize the communication transmission of IoT devices through communication equipment installed on the carrier. This concept was introduced in 3GPP release 17 and is design for IoT and 5G NR. SGS Taiwan has cooperated with equipment vendors for the trial-run promotion of IoT-NTN in the Sep’ 2023, in response to the conformance testing of IoT-NTN enforced by GCF, SGS Taiwan took the lead in providing IoT-NTN conformance certification testing services this month.

"SGS has always been committed to providing the world's highest quality testing and inspection services. We are very honored to be the first laboratory in Taiwan to obtain IoT-NTN RF (3GPP TS 36.521-4) verification qualification approval. This is not only an affirmation of SGS's professional capabilities in the NTN field, but also demonstrates our commitment to assisting customers in achieving innovation and breakthroughs" said, Dikin Yang, Manager of SGS Wireless Laboratory.

 

In order to ensure the quality and performance of IoT-NTN products, SGS Taiwan Wireless Laboratory took the lead in cooperating with test and measurement equipment manufacturers to provide pre-test services and obtained samples from chip manufacturers in advance for comparison and verification. We will continue to be committed to providing excellent technical support and testing services to our customers, including performance evaluation, interoperability testing, security testing, etc. This series of tests not only ensured compliance with various IoT-NTN technical standards, but also verified that SGS's testing laboratory has highly sophisticated testing equipment and a professional technical team that can meet customers' high requirements for quality and reliability.

 

SGS believes that this will provide a reliable platform for Taiwan's communication equipment manufacturers, network operators and other IoT-NTN related industries to ensure that its IoT-NTN equipment and solutions meet the highest global standards and assist Taiwanese enterprises to have breakthroughs and successes in their product developments. This marks a new step for SGS Taiwan in promoting Taiwan's technology industry and demonstrates SGS's leading position in the global IOT-NTN field.
