Thu 18 - Fri 19 September | University College London 64th Fitce International Conference
The Integration of terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks

Organised in partnership with the Institute of Telecommunications Professionals (ITP), it recognises the growing interest in space-based communications and the role it can play in delivering an optimised heterogeneous network with wide coverage and high availability. For example, whether it is in addressing not-spots where terrestrial networks are less commercially viable or in providing much-needed network resilience, the last five years has seen a huge growth in Low Earth Orbit satellite constellations and the potential they offer. Hence, this two-day conference will feature presentations from industry and academic speakers from across Europe discussing the service opportunities, commercial realities, technical challenges, and market potential of integrating space-based communications with the planet’s fixed and mobile network infrastructure.
