Lunch workshop: connectivity for drones

During our Lunch & Learn workshop session ‘Fly forward: Discover the future of connectivity for drones’, we zoomed in on the possibilities 5G and 6G will offer.

We learned a lot from Jos Berière (TNO) and Egbert Swierts (Drone Delivery Services) about how Drone Delivery Services is collaborating with the Future Network Services program. The aim is to enable safe and reliable BVLOS flight (beyond visual line of sight) with drones, initially focusing on cases with societal impact, such as delivery of medical supplies while gaining valuable expertise and knowledge for the sector.

During a fruitful discussion, we defined key challenges faced by SMEs in adopting 5G solutions such as uncertainty in connectivity and coverage, pricing of new infrastructure as well as lack of insight in coverage in rural areas.
