Totum’s satellite communicated with a terrestrial endpoint located in a San Diego office building, demonstrating a miniature omnidirectional antenna.
US-based satellite connectivity start-up Totum has announced the successful indoor operation of its direct-to-satellite IoT connectivity solution. Based on Totum’s wireless technology, which provides unprecedented reach from space, the demonstration showcased bidirectional communication between a fully integrated system-on-a-chip (SoC) and Totum’s low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite. 
The terrestrial endpoint was located in a San Diego office building, and in contrast to high-gain directional antennas typically required by satellite modems, the demonstration made use of a miniature omnidirectional antenna.
