6G-NTN2 Nexus
The IMT-2030 ubiquitous connectivity requires a combination of terrestrial and non-terrestrial access technologies. NTN provide service continuity and connectivity to rural and remote communities while maintaining user experience consistency and playing a key role in disaster relief. 6G-NTN2 NEXUS researches, designs, assesses, and demonstrates novel system-level techniques and reinforced TN-NTN integration for 3GPP 6G NTN to enable: -enhanced features, service capabilities, and performance for D2D and vertical markets, including PPDR, connectivity below 7.125 GHz; -broadband and additional service connectivity to vehicle/static-mounted devices for vertical markets, such as automotive, public safety, transportation, utilities, media/entertainment, backhauling, above 10 GHz. This requires developing key features to ensure that 6G core technologies, architectures, and protocols at radio interface, network, and management levels can be used for TN and NTN to simplify management, mobility, multi-tenancy, E2E resource slicing, and service provision based on traffic-related parameters. The project-designed architecture embeds advanced and optimised multi-tenancy management and orchestration schemes supporting MNOs and SNOs resource sharing, dynamic and reconfigurable routing techniques and protocols in multi-layered/-domain systems, and advanced RAT enablers, including GNSS-free operations, PNT solutions, ISAC, and distributed beamforming. Three PoCs are implemented: i) harmonized Sub-7 GHz Radio Access for TN-NTN; ii) harmonized NTN/TN PNT and Communications above 10 GHz for Direct-to-Mobile Platforms; iii) reconfiguration and orchestration of integrated TN-NTN for resilient and secure infrastructure. The project ensures its global impact by coordinating with international and European initiatives, contributing to the IMT-2030 and 6G definition, and proposing, as a complement to IRIS2, new TN-NTN integrated infrastructures for service roll-out in the 2032-2035 timeframe
