The Colloquium and Plenary Panels introduced various activities for satellite communications usage in 5G networks, including introduction of optical technologies and massive impact of introducing 5G to space industries. The 37th ICSSC will address challenges, looking forward to the employment of new technologies, architectures and system solutions for migration, harmonization and integration to make 5G networks more attractive, effective and advanced.
The theme of the 37th ICSSC is Ensuring a Realistic Migration, Harmonization and Integration of Space Based Communications Facilities Within the 5G Network. In addition, satellite communication industries in Asia-Pacific region and the activities will be expected to be introduced during the 37th ICSSC.
