- Hyundai Mobis has developed a telematics solution (MTCU) capable of 5G wireless communication, securing leadership in the global connectivity market - The current 4G-based telematics market is evolving with 5G technology, enabling high-precision map services and remote control - 5G solutions are also essential for SDV transformation, and the company aims to complete product development in the first half of this year SEOUL, South Korea, Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On the 21st, Hyundai Mobis announced that it is developing a 5G wireless communication-based antenna-integrated telematics solution (MTCU) to strengthen its automotive electronics business in the mobility sector. MTCU (Multi-function Telematics Control Unit) is a telematics solution based on 5G communication. Telematics is a driver convenience technology that integrates information and communication technology into vehicles to provide functions such as driving route guidance, accident and theft detection, and remote control. As the mobile communication generation transitions from 4G to 5G, market competition in the mobility sector is intensifying, particularly around the development of high-specification, multi-functional telematics products. Currently, most vehicle telematics functions worldwide operate on 4G mobile communication. Hyundai Mobis is also currently mass-producing and supplying 4G-based telematics products. "To achieve rapid market entry in the next-generation connected car service sector, we will complete product development by the first half of this year and secure market leadership in the global market," said Jung Soo-Kyung, Executive Vice President and Head of the Automotive Electronics Business Unit at Hyundai Mobis. The 5G-based next-generation telematics technology being developed by Hyundai Mobis is an advanced technology that global automakers are preparing for mass production applications to enhance connected car services. 5G-based telematics technology enables new services such as high-precision map services, remote control for autonomous driving, and ultra-high-definition streaming. Currently, 4G-based communication only allows services like over-the-air (OTA) updates, car-to-home services (connecting vehicles to smart homes), and infotainment content streaming. This 5G-based control solution is also recognized as an essential technological capability required to respond to the shift towards Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs). In particular, the solution being developed by Hyundai Mobis eliminates the need for externally protruding antennas, integrating antenna functionality into the built-in controller. This design offers the advantage of a sleeker vehicle appearance. Hyundai Mobis plans to enhance its competitiveness in securing orders in the global market by combining its existing capabilities in developing vehicle telematics systems and mass production experience with communication technology. To secure this market-leading technology early, Hyundai Mobis is collaborating with various mobile communication modem (data transmission/reception and signal conversion devices) specialists, including Korea's AM. Hyundai Mobis showcased the newly developed product at CES 2026 held in the US this month, promoting it to global customers to further expand orders. About Hyundai MobisHyundai Mobis is the global no. 6 automotive supplier, headquartered in Seoul, Korea. Hyundai Mobis has outstanding expertise in sensors, sensor fusion in ECUs and software development for safety control. The company's products also include various components for electrification, brakes, chassis and suspension, steering, airbags, lighting, and automotive electronics.

The first mobile-originated message sent over the Iridium NTN Direct service read: "To Iridium and Beyond." MCLEAN, Va., Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Iridium Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: IRDM), a leading provider of global voice, data, and PNT satellite services, today announced successful on-air testing of Iridium NTN Direct℠, including two-way message transmission over its low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network. This milestone marks a significant step forward as Iridium prepares for beta testing and commercial service of Iridium NTN Direct in 2026. Iridium Satellite Network Iridium NTN Direct is being developed as the world's first truly global, standards-based NB-IoT and direct-to-device (D2D) non-terrestrial network (NTN) service. With Iridium NTN Direct, mobile network operators (MNOs) can extend coverage beyond terrestrial networks, while chipset makers and device manufacturers can integrate standardized satellite capability into their products to support this expanded reach. "Iridium NTN Direct is no longer a concept, it's on the air, sending messages, and now being rigorously tested to meet our elite performance standards," said Matt Desch, CEO of Iridium. "This milestone reinforces why mobile network operators and chipset makers are engaging with Iridium. We offer a low-risk, globally coordinated, and operational network designed to complement what they do, not compete with what they do." The successful testing is leveraging new 5G waveform algorithms implemented on Iridium's software-defined satellites, supporting the NB-IoT standards-based protocol defined by 3GPP. Activated via software update to the Iridium constellation, the first mobile-originated messages were transmitted using the low power nRF9151 LTE-M/NB-IoT/NTN module from Nordic Semiconductor, a global leader in low power wireless connectivity solutions, reflecting Iridium's previously announced collaboration. "This successful test proves that global connectivity is no longer limited by infrastructure – we can now deploy battery-powered connected devices anywhere, using a standard, low-power module such as Nordic's nRF9151," said Oyvind Birkenes, EVP Long-Range BU at Nordic Semiconductor. "Our roadmap is fully aligned with Iridium's 2026 plans, and we are committed to accelerating mass-market adoption of standards-based, space-enabled IoT for everyone." Iridium NTN Direct is designed for a broad set of use cases in both consumer and industrial markets, including emergency and safety messaging, asset tracking, automotive and transportation monitoring, utilities, logistics, agriculture, and remote infrastructure maintenance. For MNOs, the service represents an incremental opportunity to eliminate coverage gaps, enhance subscriber retention, and unlock new revenue streams without the need to build or maintain additional terrestrial infrastructure. For chipset makers and OEMs, it enables a single, standards-based hardware platform capable of supporting global connectivity across both terrestrial and satellite networks. Unlike regional or cellular spectrum-based satellite solutions, Iridium NTN Direct is designed to deliver 100% global coverage, leveraging the existing constellation that already supports mission-critical communications worldwide. This approach reduces technical, regulatory, and commercial barriers for partners, accelerating time to market. Iridium plans to continue expanding on-air testing and partner integrations in the months ahead as it advances towards commercial availability of Iridium NTN Direct in 2026.
