“…The hybrid network adopts terrestrial gap fillers for retransmitting the satellite signal in non-LoS conditions, supplies the return link (from the terminal to the satellite) with the terrestrial system, and extends the satellite coverage in indoor or urban areas with local evolved-NodeBs (eNBs or LTE base stations) and vice versa. In [44], a hybrid satellite-terrestrial network architecture has been proposed for broadcast and two-way missions. For the former, satellite and terrestrial relays operate in Single-Frequency mode.…”

Fifth-generation (5G) telecommunication systems are expected to meet the world market demands of accessing and delivering services anywhere and anytime. The Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) systems are able to satisfy the requests of anywhere and anytime connections by offering wide-area coverage and ensuring service availability, continuity, and scalability. In this work, we review the 3GPP NTN features and their potential for satisfying the user expectations in 5G & beyond networks. The state of the art, current 3GPP research activities, and open issues are summarized to highlight the importance of NTN over the wireless communication landscape. Future research directions are also identified to assess the role of NTN in 5G and beyond systems.

“…To sustain a high degree of coverage even for indoor handheld users in urban areas, the satellite interface in DVB-SH based MS is usually complemented by a network of terrestrial repeaters (gap fillers) [144] forming a hybrid (satellite+terrestrial) wireless interface [145]; the gap filler network is usually set up as a SFN. From a MIMO perspective, the interest in this configuration lies in the possible application of distributed or virtual MIMO techniques [146].…”

The present article carries out a review of MIMObased techniques that have been recently proposed for satellite communications. Due to the plethora of MIMO interpretations in terrestrial systems and the particularities of satellite communications, this review is built on two pillars, namely fixed satellite and mobile satellite. Special attention is given to the characteristics of the satellite channel, which will ultimately determine the viability of MIMO over satellite. Finally, some future research directions are identified.

“…Such senarios include indoor and strong shadowed enviroments, such as dense urbens. One promissing solution for the satellite coverage of indoor and dense urbens is Ancillary Terrestrial Components (ATC) [4] [5] or Complementary Ground Component (CGC) technique [1] [6], in which the ground component performs like a basestation or relay in the terrestrail systems. Although MSV has done a lot of work to show the feasibility of ATCs [7], the future of such techniques is still not clear due to the interferences to terrestrial systems, the lack of support from mobile operators and deficient market demand [5].…”

Satellite mobile communications always require LOS environments. If the LOS path is obstructed, the signal strength can be much lower than the SNR threshold for normal communication, so a coming call will not reach the user. In this case, an enhanced paging is needed to tell the user to move out of the shadow to receive the call. In this paper, a enhanced paging design is proposed for LTE-based satellite mobile communications. Basic design issues are discussed, including the information to transmit, the resource allocation for in LTE framework, techniques for reliable transmissions and energy saving for un-targeted uses. Two implementation schemes of the enhanced paging are simulated to show the performance improvement relative to the normal paging in LTE systems.
