Hungary Launches Non-Terrestrial Network Satellite Project

• 6 Mar 2026 6:50 AM

A consortium of Hungarian companies has launched a research project focusing on non-terrestrial networks, which use satellites for wireless communication, Szabolcs Szolnoki, a deputy state secretary at the National Economy Ministry said.

The project, dubbed RAVEN (Resilient Access Validation for Evolving NTN), is led by C3S Kft, a university spin-off, and includes Molaris Kft and Obuda University, Szolnoki said.

C3S managing director Gyula Horvath said the project will produce an 8U CubeSat that will be used to test how non-terrestrial networks can fill in gaps in the coverage of terrestrial 5G networks.
