This deliverable describes the first version of the proposed architecture (functional and physical), as well as the design trade-offs and the characteristics of the ultra-small aperture terminal (USAT) operating in both mmWave and sub-6GHz bands including its RF performances (Rx and Tx). It also analyses, for smartphones, the impact (architecture, Bill Of Material) associated to the support of the C-band in addition to other sub-6 GHz bands and it characterizes the possible RF performances (Tx and Rx) in C band., A cost comparison with legacy VSAT is also reported.

Report on user requirements

This deliverable first describes the methodology followed to identify and gather the project user requirements (including how the consortium interacted with the External Advisory Board). It then gives a detailed view of the selected list of user requirements.

Use case report

This deliverable provides a list of the most relevant use cases that describe, under selected vertical and consumer contexts, how the 6G NTN technology shall be used.

Spectrum regulation analysis for 6G NTN scenarios (1st version)

This deliverable focus on an initial spectrum regulation analysis of 6G NTN spectrum bands and their utilization. A preliminary analysis and use cases will be provided in order to identify potential novel spectrum allocations [M08]. A deliverable update with a preliminary report on spectrum management techniques including initial developments of spectrum coexistence techniques with be provided at [M17], and a final report on spectrum management techniques will provide the final developments of spectrum coexistence techniques at [M36].
