FjordLink: Comparison of Starlink and 5G Networks for Teleoperated Vessel Control

The rapid growth of Low Earth Orbit satellite networks, such as Starlink, is increasing global connectivity by enabling low-latency broadband access in regions where wired and cellular networks fall short. Prior research focuses on the performance of Starlink in terrestrial settings. Yet, there is limited research on the performance of Starlink in coastal and maritime environments, raising the question of how Starlink performs in the presence of waves and tides.
