Case Studies
Q-KON, in collaboration with a South African Broadcaster has successfully demonstrated that the Twoobii OneWeb LEO satellite solution delivers high-reliability, high-throughput, Comms-on-the-Move connectivity for real-time broadcasting in South Africa.
The trial demonstrated that Twoobii OneWeb delivers seamless live video transmission across diverse and challenging terrains, consistently outperforming LTE in areas prone to congestion, coverage gaps, and interference.
For broadcasters, OneWeb is not merely a backup option, but a viable primary connectivity platform—providing a robust, field-ready solution that enhances operational resilience, supports consistent live newsgathering and future-proof mobile broadcast workflows.
This map illustrates one of the routes travelled. The Twoobii OneWeb LEO Services maintained uninterrupted live transmission across all routes travelled, including LTE-challenged areas.
Stable Throughput:
- Average uplink: 5–6 Mbps
- Peak uplink: 7.5 Mbps
- Minimum observed: 100 Kbps
Data Transferred: 8.3 GB uploaded / 4.9 GB downloaded
LTE Comparison: LTE experienced multiple failures, while OneWeb showed no outages, highlighting superior reliability.
Key Advantages of OneWeb LEO for Mobile Broadcasting
- Reliable coverage beyond LTE footprint
- Performs while stationary or on the move
- Rapid deployment with compact terminal
- Reduces dependence on terrestrial networks
- Enables coverage in remote and rural areas
- Supports continuous, interruption-free live news
