End-to-End Simulation of 5G NR Integrated Access and Backhaul Networks for Remote Maritime Connectivity
Alessandro Traspadini, Matteo Pagin, Raphaël Ihamouine +4
Millimeter wave (mmWave) 5th generation (5G) networks offer high data rates but face coverage challenges due to severe path loss and blockage. These problems motivate the use of In…
5G NR Non-Terrestrial Networks: Open Challenges for Full-Stack Protocol Design
Francesco Rossato, Mattia Figaro, Alessandro Traspadini +7
As 5th generation (5G) networks continue to evolve, there is a growing interest toward the integration of Terrestrial Networks (TNs) and Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs). Specifical…
5G NR Non-Terrestrial Networks: From Early Results to the Road Ahead
Mattia Figaro, Francesco Rossato, Marco Giordani +7
This paper overviews the 3GPP 5G NR-NTN standard, detailing the evolution from Rel. 18 to 19 and innovations for Rel. 20. Using realistic ns-3 simulations validated against 3GPP ca…
Performance Evaluation of LoRa for IoT Applications in Non-Terrestrial Networks via ns-3
