What You Will Learn:

NTN Architecture & Standards: Master the 3GPP Release 17 and 18 specifications that define the interaction between satellites (LEO, MEO, GEO) and 5G New Radio (NR).

Signal Propagation & Challenges: Step-by-step guidance on addressing extreme Doppler shifts, long propagation delays, and handovers in a high-velocity non-terrestrial environment.

Spectrum Management for 6G: Discover how to optimize frequency sharing between terrestrial and satellite networks to maximize capacity and minimize interference.

Edge Computing in Space: Learn advanced techniques for deploying “Network-in-Space” architectures and how NTNs will serve as the backbone for the upcoming 6G standard.

Who This Book is For: This professional-grade guide is essential for Telecommunications Engineers, RF Specialists, and Network Architects. It is an invaluable resource for any strategic analyst—including those interested in national infrastructure or global information security—aiming to understand the sovereign and commercial implications of the next great leap in wireless communication.
