GSMA The mobile network operator industry's global trade association, representing operator commercial and policy interests and coordinating cross-operator initiatives, working alongside technical standards bodies like 3GPP rather than performing their standardization… Regulatory & Compliance Gyro-Stabilized Antenna Gyro-Stabilized Antenna is an antenna system that uses gyroscopic sensing or stabilization control to maintain pointing on a moving platform. It compensates for motion and disturbance. Hardware Handoff Management Handoff Management is the control and coordination of transferring active sessions or connections between access points, cells, beams, or other serving nodes while minimizing interruption. Operations Handover Handover is the transfer of an active connection or service session from one node, cell, beam, or coverage area to another. It supports continuity during movement or reallocation. Operations HAPS A stratospheric communications platform — an aircraft, airship, or balloon typically operating around 20km altitude — carrying a communications payload to provide wide-area ground coverage, recognized as one of the… Hardware Hardened Terminal Hardened Terminal is a communications terminal designed to resist environmental stress, damage, interference, or operational disruption while maintaining functional communications capability in demanding field conditions. Hardware HARQ A link-layer error recovery mechanism combining forward error correction with automatic retransmission, in which a receiver retains and combines failed transmission attempts with subsequent retransmissions to improve decoding success beyond… Protocol High Availability High Availability is a design approach that aims to keep a system or service accessible and operational with minimal downtime through redundancy and failover patterns. Operations High-Gain Antenna High-Gain Antenna is an antenna that concentrates energy in a narrow beam to increase effective signal strength in the desired direction by shaping the radiation pattern to focus transmitted or… Hardware Horizon Masking Horizon Masking is the obstruction or loss of visibility near the horizon caused by the Earth, terrain, or vessel geometry. It blocks low-angle paths and prevents RF signals from reaching… Concept/Framework
