Announcements & Events

Future Wireless communication systems are expected to support a massive number of services with significantly higher data rates, ultra-reliable connectivity, and seamless global coverage. However, conventional homogeneous wireless networks, such as standalone cellular or satellite systems, may not be sufficient to satisfy these requirements individually, particularly in remote and underserved areas, including oceans, deserts, and mountainous regions.

Hybrid Satellite–Terrestrial Networks (HSTNs) have emerged as a promising solution to address these challenges by integrating satellite, aerial, and terrestrial communication infrastructures into a unified space–air–ground network. This integration enables efficient resource utilization, extended coverage, and improved reliability for next-generation wireless communications.

This presentation reviews recent developments in HSTNs and highlights their role as a key enabling technology for future 6G wireless systems. The discussion focuses on system architecture, cooperative and cognitive communication frameworks, performance analysis, and design optimization techniques. In addition, major enabling technologies are compared, and important security considerations and implementation challenges are discussed. Finally, several open research issues and future directions for the development of HSTNs in the 6G era are identified.

We cordially invite all faculty members and students to attend this important event. The presentation will take place on Monday, March 2, 2026, at 10:00 AM in room B15-3-2-003 at the College of Engineering, University City of Fara’a. Your presence and participation will foster an engaging academic discussion.

We look forward to seeing you there!
