Direct-to-Device (D2D) Technologies:
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) recently organized a high-level workshop through the Telecommunication Engineering Centre (TEC) to explore Direct-to-Device (D2D) satellite communication.It is an emerging satellite communication technology that allows standard, off-the-shelf mobile devices (like your smartphone) to connect directly to satellites without the need for specialized hardware, satellite phones, or intermediate ground equipment.It essentially turns satellites into cell towers in space, extending cellular coverage globally.
