Satellite Integration into 5G Communication Systems

The presentation will present the convergence of satellite communications and terrestrial 5G networks, with a particular focus on the Starlink system, which is based on a global constellation of low-orbit satellites. As a complement to traditional terrestrial infrastructure, satellites play a key role in expanding broadband coverage, increasing network redundancy and reducing latency. The presentation will review the integration challenges and standardization directions between 5G and non-terrestrial networks (NTN), as well as the opportunities for satellite backhaul and edge computing. The demo will demonstrate the operation of a Starlink antenna, which will clearly illustrate how a user terminal can dynamically connect to the satellite network, ensuring that it becomes an integral part of the 5G ecosystem.

Due to bad weather, the event will be held in the building of Faculty of Informatics, in IF0 lecture hall!!!
