OTFS

A modulation scheme built for difficult wireless channels.

Definition
OTFS stands for orthogonal time frequency space. It is a modulation approach designed to spread data across time and frequency so wireless links can stay more resilient in fast-moving or noisy environments.
Why it matters
OTFS matters when satellite, mobility, or remote connectivity stories depend on keeping links stable under movement and interference.
