5G-STARDUST

Satellite and Terrestrial Access for Distributed, Ubiquitous, and Smart Telecommunications

Our mission

Design, develop and demonstrate a deeper integration of TN and NTN: Deliver a fully integrated 5G-NTN autonomous system with novel self-adapting end-to-end connectivity models for enabling ubiquitous radio access.

Our objectives

To define an integrated terrestrial-satellite network building on 5G-compliant regenerative satellite payloads, enabling cost-effective connectivity in un(der)served areas.

To ensure a more efficient user connectivity concept by providing geographic coverage according to user-centric approaches (i.e. cell-free strategies).

To define a self-organised end-to-end network architecture able to adapt to diverse verticals’ requirements and to time-varying network operations (e.g., data traffic loads and topology changes).

To provide end-to-end network flexibility by means of data driven AI-based multi-connectivity and resource allocation strategies.

To guarantee cost reduction and capability to scale up the integration of satellite with terrestrial infrastructures to efficiently manage the deployment and operation of massive capacity networks.
