6G is currently under definition, being often addressed from a plain telecommunications perspective as an evolutionary paradigm that represents an extension of 5G. Having as a horizon 2030, 6G initiatives are being deployed across the globe to further ignite the development of 6G services. At its philosophical core, 6G embodies the "human in the loop" principle. The research effort being developed towards 6G requires an interdisciplinary approach that ignites discussion across different key technological sectors, ranging from communications up to services and business cases.
The contributions of this book to research in the field concern an evolutionary and interdisciplinary design of 6G as a paradigm that can be addressed by working together four different computational areas: communications; satellites and navigation; sensing; services.
The book starts with a perspective on 6G challenges and use-cases beyond the 2030 horizon, to then continue to address the role of non-terrestrial networks and cognitive, service-centric satellite networks in future 6G services. Still with focus on 6G adaptive networking, the book continues with a debate on the need to integrate social awareness based on an interdisciplinary approach in network operations. Then, specific examples of advanced services (quantum imaging and holography; localization of the Internet of remote things) are discussed.
The 6G paradigm is currently the focus of a large number of scientific domains, in an effort to reach the desired always-on, sustainable, and efficient human-centric services, that assist in the development of mankind. Sustainability, affordability, flexibility, and accessibility are among the main drivers toward 6G services. Of relevancy to 6G is the capability of the overall holistic systems to support connectivity across very diverse geographic regions, considering that a large share of the human population (over 3.5 billion) does not yet have Internet access.
Several companies have been investing significantly in new LEO satellite constellations to provide Internet access anywhere on Earth, while satellite operators aim to combine GEO with NGSO systems. In this scenario, a global network of a large number of satellites aims to sustain seamless connectivity enabling access around the globe, which is an essential humanitarian need. The increasingly demand for Internet connectivity everywhere and anytime highlights the need to rethink about a suitable way to manage large-scale networks, as is the case of multi-orbit satellite constellations. This chapter aims to analyze a set of design choices to devise a suitable networking framework able to sustain the operation of dynamic network services in large-scale multi-orbit satellite constellations.
The book is, therefore, intended to assist in developing critical thinking to back up novel networking, applications, and services towards 6G.
