Digital Global Systems (DGS) has introduced its RF Awareness platform, which employs patented AI techniques to assist satellite operators in managing network complexities and enhancing service reliability as the satellite market evolves. This platform is designed to address the upcoming growth of direct-to-device (D2D) satellite services, anticipated to expand significantly by 2025.

As satellite usage increases with consumer, enterprise, and military applications, the need for effective RF spectrum management becomes crucial. The RF Awareness platform allows satellite operators to monitor and mitigate interference while facilitating more autonomous network operations. According to DGS, the application of their AI techniques can decrease the processing power needed to establish D2D connections by 25% to 40%, leading to lower power consumption and costs.

DGS holds 107 patents pertaining to machine-to-machine inference models and pattern recognition methods, which contribute to the efficiencies offered through RF Awareness. These capabilities not only enhance service delivery for operators but also provide avenues for developing new revenue-generating applications.

“Satellite operators face enormous opportunities to create new services with the imminent growth of D2D, but as space becomes more congested, these operators must effectively manage the RF spectrum,” said Fernando Murias, Chairman and CEO of DGS. The RF Awareness platform delivers benefits such as detailed insight into spectrum environments, improved service reliability, and greater network flexibility.

In addition, DGS has a history of assisting operators with dynamic spectrum sharing and offers real-time, AI-driven spectrum analysis for the satellite sector. By leveraging these insights, satellite operators can enhance communication systems, particularly for military use, where situational awareness is paramount.
