Roadmap Techno 5G - Quantifying reconfiguration and flexibility requirements for satellite payloads operating within the 5G environment

The focus of this activity is :

• to identify the most relevant 5G scenarios  

• to analyze and quantify the level/type of flexibility needed in next-generation satellites, where satellites could play a relevant role

• to address the possible technologies / topologies / concepts answering those needs and evaluate their relevance towards a commercial business case. 

• to allow the definition of precise development roadmaps and to recommend :

  • the development of new system concepts for the next generation of "5G compatible" satellites;

  • the new technologies to be developed in that respect;

  • future 5G standard requirements to ensure the place of a satellite component in its architecture.
