Title: New Frontiers in Space Laser Communications for Beyond 5G/6G
Abstract: Currently, as discussions on the way how the information and communication technology (ICT) should be in Beyond 5G (B5G) and 6G are accelerating, the space laser communication is becoming more advanced and active in the field of space communications. The satellite quantum key distribution (QKD) also gathers more attention for the future secure network. The realization of the advanced communication network is expected to connect the terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks (NTN) seamlessly. B5G/6G will require further global spatial expansion of the network than the current 5G, which direction is toward not only two-dimensional so far but also three-dimensional expansion for the mobile platforms called NTN in the future. In this talk, the trend and future vision of the space laser communication technology in the B5G/6G era will be introduced.
