Abstract:Non terrestrial networks (NTN) involving 'in the sky' objects such as low-earth orbit satellites, high altitude platform systems (HAPs) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are expected to be integral components of next generation cellular systems. With the deployment of 5G services and beyond, NTNs are leveraged to assist as aerial base stations in providing ubiquitous network connectivity and service to ground users or be deployed as aerial users connected to the cellular network. NTN-aided wireless communica… Show more
