Dear Colleagues,

*Our next telco meeting (December 18, 2024 at 18:00 CET) will be a webinar
open to the widest participation.* You can join via the normal telco
meeting link (you do not need to register). If possible, share the link
below with colleagues and students so they can register and attend (they
can thus receive the telco link invitations).

The webinar details are as follows:


*Webinar Title: "New Perspectives for the Integration of Terrestrial and
Non-Terrestrial Networks for 6G Systems"*
Date/Time: Wednesday, December 18th, 2024 @ 17:00 UTC
Registration: https://bit.ly/FN-SAT-18Dec2024

*Program *

- INGR Satellite WG introduction

- *1st talk: "Management and Control Techniques for Energy Saving in
Integrated Non-Terrestrial/Terrestrial Networks"*
by Franco Davoli (CNIT-University of Genoa, Italy), Hesham Elbakoury
(Consultant, USA)
Abstract:
*In the evolutionary path beyond 5G toward 6G, network energy efficiency is
being recognized as a fundamental indicator, along with those regarding
system performance. The impact of this aspect extends to both wired and
wireless networks and, among the latter, to Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs)
as well, and implies a reconsideration of management and control techniques
to include the trade-off between energy and performance KPIs. This talk
will touch upon some topics relevant to NTN/TN integration in this respect:
conveying energy consumption information and adjustment capabilities;
energy/performance tradeoff over multiple time scales; role of
virtualization; multiple orchestration levels; exploiting O-RAN functional
splitting in NTN edge extension; role of AI/ML.*
- *2nd talk: "Evolving Non-Terrestrial Networks from 5G to 6G"*
by Alessandro Guidotti (CNIT-University of Bologna, Italy)
Abstract: *The integration of a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) component in
the global telecommunications infrastructure is now a reality, thanks to
3GPP Rel. 17. This opened the door for the seamless integration of
air-/space-borne network elements in the 5G system, achieving ubiquitous
and continuous connectivity. In this framework, it is globally recognized
that a further step is required for 6G communications; these will encompass
a native NTN component in a terrestrial/non-terrestrial jointly optimized
infrastructure yielding unprecedented benefits in Industry, Society, and
Economy. This presentation aims at providing an overview of the evolution
of NTN within 3GPP 5G-Advanced/6G.*
