AccelerComm was born from world-leading academic research into 5G signal processing at the University of Southampton. That research heritage is embedded in every product we ship.

Professor Rob Maunder and his team spent years developing and refining the algorithms that underpin our 5G Layer 1 IP before a single line of commercial code was written. That research foundation - protected by a portfolio of granted patents across LDPC channel coding, Polar decoding, and physical layer signal processing - means our implementations set the benchmark for what 5G Layer 1 IP can achieve.  

That same research culture is active today. Our expert team continues working with standards groups on both 5G NTN and the emerging 6G NTN roadmap, which means our customers benefit not just from what has been standardised, but from what is coming next. The companies building the satellite networks of the 2030s are embedding AccelerComm IP today. That academic foundation translates into direct commercial outcome: IP that performs at the ceiling of the standard, across 5G NTN and into 6G.

BUILDING ON STRONG FOUNDATIONS

Deep Research Heritage

  • Spun out of the University of Southampton, where Prof. Rob Maunder's team spent years developing signal processing algorithms for 5G
  • The expertise we hold today took years of dedicated academic research to develop
  • Our academic heritage and deployment experience runs through everything we build today

Proven in the Most Demanding Environments

  • IP already deployed on hundreds of satellites, including regenerative 5G NTN payloads
  • Production-proven across leading chipmakers on three continents
  • Space-qualified implementations available for the most demanding orbital environments

Built for What's Coming Next

  • Actively contributing to 3GPP standards for both 5G NTN and the emerging 6G NTN roadmap
  • Our customers gain access to next-generation signal processing IP before it becomes standard
  • The companies building the satellite networks of the 2030s are embedding AccelerComm inside

AccelerComm brings together researchers, engineers, and commercial leaders who have spent their careers at the frontier of 5G physical layer technology and satellite communications.

From the algorithm designers who have been working on channel coding since before 5G existed, to systems engineers with hands-on experience deploying IP in orbit, to commercial leaders who have built and scaled satellite and wireless businesses globally, every part of our team has done this work before, at the highest level. That depth of collective experience is what our customers are working with when they choose AccelerComm.
