EJL Wireless Research Announces the Launching of its Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) Research Platform

A Unique Supply Chain Ecosystem Research Approach to Analyzing the Complexities of NTNs

Initial Focus on Emerging Chinese Start Ups

Salem, NH December 1, 2025: EJL Wireless Research announces the formation and launch of its non-terrestrial networks (NTN) research platform that extends its existing terrestrial networks (TN)
research platform for mobile communications. Leading this research platform is Dr. Saqlain Ali, Senior
Consulting Analyst.

EJL Wireless Research has identified six key segments within the end to end supply chain ecosystem that enables the commercial broadband satellite constellation market. The satellite constellation, typically in a low earth orbit (LEO), forms the core of an NTN that extends mobility services from the traditional terrestrial mobile radio access networks to the potential for ubiquitous outdoor global
connectivity in locations that terrestrial networks will never reach.

These six key segments are:
1. Space Launch Vehicles
2. Space Launch Centers
3. Broadband Satellites
4. Ground Station Gateways
5. Satellite Constellations
6. Direct-to Cellular (D2C)/Direct-to-Device (D2D) enabled mobile phones and IoT devices

EJL Wireless Research is launching the NTN research platform with the release of nine competitive analysis reports covering the space launch vehicles and space launch complexes segments, all of which are focused on Chinese-based state controlled enterprises and private venture backed start up companies.

“The emerging private venture capital-backed space launch vehicle market in China is an exciting market that will ultimately provide Chinese mobile operators as well as other emerging Chinese satellite service providers viable competition against current incumbent SpaceX’s Starlink satellite service,” says
Earl Lum, President of EJL Wireless Research.

“Our strategy at EJL Wireless Research is to identify and focus on the potential supply chain chokepoints for the broadband satellite NTN ecosystem and provide these insights to our clients. We
believe that the key chokepoint within the satellite industry is, and will continue to be, the space launch
vehicles as well as availability of space launch centers” says Lum.■
