Evolving 5G New Radio (NR) to support non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), particularly satellite communication networks, is under exploration in 3GPP. The movement of the spaceborne platforms in NTNs may result in large timing varying Doppler shift that differs for devices in different locations. Using orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) in the uplink, each device will need to apply a different frequency adjustment value to compensate for the Doppler shift. To this end, the 3GPP Release-17 work on NTNs assumes that an NTN device is equipped with a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) chipset and thereby can determine its position and calculate the needed frequency adjustment value using its position information and satellite ephemeris data. This makes GNSS support essential for the NTN operation. However, GNSS signals are weak, not ubiquitous, and susceptible to interference and spoofing. We show that devices without access to GNSS signals can utilize reference signals in more than one frequency position in an OFDM carrier to estimate the Doppler shift and thereby determine the needed frequency adjustment value for pre-compensating the Doppler shift in the uplink. We analyze the performance, elaborate on how to utilize the NR reference signals, and present simulation results. The solution can reduce the dependency of NTN operation on GNSS with reasonable complexity and performance trade-off.

We provide an overview of the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) work on evolving the 5G wireless technology to support non-terrestrial satellite networks. Adapting 5G to support non-terrestrial networks entails a holistic design spanning acro ss multiple areas from radio access network to services and system aspects to core and terminals. In this article, we describe the main topics of non-terrestrial networks, explain in detail the design aspects, and share various design rationales influencing standardization.
Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) traditionally had certain limited applications. However, the recent technological advancements opened up myriad applications of NTNs for 5G and beyond networks, especially when integrated into terrestrial networks (TNs ). This article comprehensively surveys the evolution of NTNs highlighting its relevance to 5G networks and essentially, how it will play a pivotal role in the development of 6G and beyond wireless networks. The survey discusses important features of NTNs integration into TNs by delving into the new range of services and use cases, various architectures, and new approaches being adopted to develop a new wireless ecosystem. Our survey includes the major progresses and outcomes from academic research as well as industrial efforts. We first start with introducing the relevant 5G use cases and general integration challenges such as handover and deployment difficulties. Then, we review the NTNs operations in mmWave and their potential for the internet of things (IoT). Further, we discuss the significance of mobile edge computing (MEC) and machine learning (ML) in NTNs by reviewing the relevant research works. Furthermore, we also discuss the corresponding higher layer advancements and relevant field trials/prototyping at both academic and industrial levels. Finally, we identify and review 6G and beyond application scenarios, novel architectures, technological enablers, and higher layer aspects pertinent to NTNs integration.
The recent and upcoming releases of the 3rd Generation Partnership Projects 5G New Radio specifications include features that are motivated by providing connectivity services to a broad set of verticals, including the automotive, rail, and air transp ort industries. Currently, several radio access network features are being further enhanced or newly introduced in NR to improve 5Gs capability to provide fast, reliable, and non-limiting connectivity for transport applications. In this article, we review the most important characteristics and requirements of a wide range of services that are driven by the desire to help the transport sector to become more sustainable, economically viable, safe, and secure. These requirements will be supported by the evolving and entirely new features of 5G NR systems, including accurate positioning, reference signal design to enable multi-transmission and reception points, service-specific scheduling configuration, and service quality prediction.

With the rapid development of railways, especially high-speed railways, there is an increasingly urgent demand for new wireless communication system for railways. Taking the mature 5G technology as an opportunity, 5G-railways (5G-R) have been widely regarded as a solution to meet the diversified demands of railway wireless communications. For the design, deployment and improvement of 5G-R networks, radio communication scenario classification plays an important role, affecting channel modeling and system performance evaluation. In this paper, a standardized radio communication scenario classification, including 18 scenarios, is proposed for 5G-R. This paper analyzes the differences of 5G-R scenarios compared with the traditional cellular networks and GSM-railways, according to 5G-R requirements and the unique physical environment and propagation characteristics. The proposed standardized scenario classification helps deepen the research of 5G-R and promote the development and application of the existing advanced technologies in railways.
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is an emerging paradigm that provides computing, storage, and networking resources within the edge of the mobile Radio Access Network (RAN). MEC servers are deployed on generic computing platform within the RAN and allow f or delay-sensitive and context-aware applications to be executed in close proximity to the end users. This approach alleviates the backhaul and core network and is crucial for enabling low-latency, high-bandwidth, and agile mobile services. This article envisages a real-time, context-aware collaboration framework that lies at the edge of the RAN, constituted of MEC servers and mobile devices, and that amalgamates the heterogeneous resources at the edge. Specifically, we introduce and study three strong use cases ranging from mobile-edge orchestration, collaborative caching and processing and multi-layer interference cancellation. We demonstrate the promising benefits of these approaches in facilitating the evolution to 5G networks. Finally, we discuss the key technical challenges and open-research issues that need to be addressed in order to make an efficient integration of MEC into 5G ecosystem.
