MTS was the first Russian cellular operator to apply for the allocation of bands for hybrid communication networks. The operator submitted an application to the State Commission for Radio Frequencies (SCRF), the Ministry of Digital Development reported in a statement.

MTS has requested the allocation of frequencies in the range 1920-1980/2110-2170 MHz to test hybrid communication networks.
Hybrid communication networks are a network infrastructure that combines different data transmission technologies and protocols, in particular, ground stations and satellite channels. Thus, it is planned to provide communications to those areas and territories where the signal from terrestrial networks is difficult.
SCRF will create a working group to study bands that are suitable for testing.
In the spring of 2023, the media, referring to the draft strategy for the development of the communications industry for 2024-2035, wrote that by 2030 it is planned to launch into orbit a constellation of low-orbit satellites that will provide communications in areas where cellular communications are not available.
