As mentioned in a blog post from July of this year, Ligado Networks has been developing its mixed mobile-satellite wireless network, which will operate using its licensed L-Band spectrum. Once deployed, Ligado's network will offer 5G private network and IoT capabilities that will create jobs and boost the U.S. economy. To this end, Ligado has reached agreements with equipment manufacturers, and its latest announced partnership is with the OpenRAN vendor Mavenir. See Free State Foundation President Randolph May's tweet on this announcement, with a link to the press release:
The announcement that @LigadoNetworks is partnering w/ @Mavenir to advance the connectivity of its #5G mobile satellite network is imp't, esp. now. The combo will support millions of mobile devices used in critical #infrastructure industries. See: https://t.co/4pwfsAUk6G
