Advancing 6G: Innovation in Non-Terrestrial Networks
The article, based on an exclusive interview with the 6G-NTN project coordinator, Alessandro Vanelli-Coralli from University of Bologna, spotlights the innovative work carried out by the 6G-NTN consortium. Titled “6G and satellites: shaping the future of telecommunication”, the piece highlights the transformative potential of 6G technology, particularly its native integration with non-terrestrial systems, including satellites, high-altitude platforms, and drones.
The 6G-NTN project coordinator emphasised the importance of optimising NTN components, stating:
“We do not design an infrastructure with tens of thousands of satellites, but rather fewer, exploiting innovative concepts and technologies based on heterogeneous and distributed architectures that guarantee the economic and environmental sustainability of the system, while ensuring performance superior to traditional projects with thousands of satellites.”
Alessandro shared insights into how the 6G-NTN project is pioneering innovative architectures and sustainable solutions to support seamless global connectivity. The feature highlights the project’s role in shaping the future of telecommunication while strengthening Europe’s competitiveness.
