Satellite Backhauling for Next Generation Cellular Networks: Challenges and Opportunities

Recently, studies on integration of satellitebased communication with terrestrial next-generation cellular networks (5G) have emerged in academia, standardization bodies, and industry due to extended coverage and service enrichment possibilities for mobile network operators (MNOs). In this article,...
