SINGAPORE (June 11): The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), M1, and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) will be conducting coastal 5G standalone network trials with Airbus at the Singapore Maritime Drone Estate.

The trials will include the testing of the world’s first aeronautical certified 5G standalone communication modem for urban air mobility (UAM) operations. The modem will be designed and developed by local SME TeamOne Technologies, in a collaboration with M1.

The trials are planned to be conducted in real-world situations, including in designated drone-fly zones, to ensure that unmanned aerial vehicles can operate safely and efficiently during all phases of their flights.
