In 3GPP RAN#99 meeting, for fulfilling market demand, the new spectrum WI to add support for a new IoT NTN band with the DL part on the S-band (2500MHz) and the UL part on the L-band (1600MHz) was agreed. Additionally, another new IoT NTN spectrum WI for the Extended L-band (DL 1518-1525 MHz, UL 1668-1675 MHz) was agreed as well. Introduction and specification of requirements for more NTN IoT bands is expected and can be requested if necessary.
