The 6G-NTN consortium is excited to publish its initial results spanning from 30 months of active research and development. These findings offer a first look at how non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), such as satellites and high-altitude platforms (HAPs), can be seamlessly integrated into the future 6G ecosystem to deliver resilient, sustainable, and globally accessible 6G connectivity.
From defining use cases and user requirements across diverse terminal types to proposing a robust 3D multi-layered network architecture, 6G-NTN’s early outcomes set the stage for the next generation of connectivity.
Key achievements include progress in sustainability metrics, advanced payload and waveform design, and regulatory insights for Q/V and C-band usage.
With just six months remaining, the project is now entering its final development phase, building on a solid technical foundation.
