Section: 7.4.2 Requirements
Content: A 5G system providing service with satellite access shall be able to support GEO based satellite access with up to 285 ms end-to-end latency. NOTE 1: 5 ms network latency is assumed and added to satellite one-way delay. A 5G system providing service with satellite access shall be able to support MEO based satellite access with up to 95 ms end-to-end latency. NOTE 2: 5 ms network latency is assumed and added to satellite one-way delay. A 5G system providing service with satellite access shall be able to support LEO based satellite access with up to 35 ms end-to-end latency. NOTE 3: 5 ms network latency is assumed and added to satellite one-way delay. A 5G system shall support negotiation on quality of service taking into account latency penalty to optimise the QoE for UE. The 5G system with satellite access shall support high uplink data rates for 5G satellite UEs. The 5G system with satellite access shall support high downlink data rates for 5G satellite UEs. The 5G system with satellite access shall support communication service availabilities of at least 99,99%. Table 7.4.2-1: Performance requirements for satellite access
