Mentor's Musings on Architectural & Standardization Imperatives for NTN to Enable Ubiquitous Global Connectivity

Terrestrial cellular communication and Satellite communication, both have individually come of age in last more than three decades. However, to meet the vision of providing ubiquitous connectivity across the planet and in the sky (& space) for diverse use cases, we need a fresh look at the architecture of the communication networks, their respective standards and spectrum requirements and constraints.
