Pre-5G Satellite Systems 5G-based Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) are expected to become increasingly common in the coming years. At the same time

As discussed in Chapter 1, the Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UASs) considered in this book as part of the Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN)

One of the most important differences between GEO, MEO, and LEO satellites is their orbital altitude. Key Characteristics and NTN Design

From the 3GPP NTN perspective, two major types of NTN platforms are considered:Satellites as NTN Platforms

Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) provide significant flexibility to network operators by supporting different types of non-terrestrial platforms.

Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) are expected to play an important role as a key component of 5G, 5G-Advanced, and future 6G networks.

Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) can play an important role in a wide range of communication scenarios where traditional Terrestrial Networks

Non-Terrestrial Networks are one of the prominent features introduced into the 5G ecosystem by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project 3GPP NTN Architecture.
