Abstract: Starry is developing and deploying new technology with the goal of connecting billions of people worldwide to affordable, high speed internet.  Currently, Starry’s internet service is available in 5 different U.S. cities: Boston, LA, DC, Denver, and NYC. This mission is enabled by Starry’s advanced multipoint system, which will be reviewed in this talk at a high level. Following the system overview, there will be a general technical discussion of applicable topics including path loss, link budget analysis, and digital predistortion. The session will conclude with questions.
