Preparation for LEO (Low-Earth Orbit) Satellite Networks
Dr. Yeo-Sun Yoon
Abstract:
These days, space is considered as the last field to explore. Since the success of Space X, aerospace industry changes its paradigm to ‘new space’ from ‘old space’ where the government led and controlled everything related to the space. In the center of this paradigm, LEO satellites play very important roles. While recent advanced technologies make LEO satellite network possible both practically and financially, many private companies are working toward this ‘new space.’ In this talk, the effort and preparation for LEO satellites of Hanwha group and Korean companies will be introduced

Ranging Based Services and Sidelink Positioning - Enlighten Your Life
Ms. Sherry Shen
Abstract:
Ranging refers to the determination of the distance between two UEs or more UEs and/or the direction and/or relative positioning of one UE from another UE via direct communication. Sidelink Positioning is to position a UE using PC5 direct communication.
Ranging based services and Sidelink Positioning technology can be used in a variety of verticals, such as smart home, smart city, smart transportation, smart retail, industry 4.0, V2X and public safety services for in-coverage, partial coverage and out of coverage use cases.
3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), a standard organization for developing cellular telecommunication specifications, has identified the above use cases and the technical requirements, and has established several Release 18 study items on Ranging and Sidelink positioning to specify the radio enhancements, 5GC architectural enhancements and security impacts, which are parts of 5G-Advanced features.

Model Equivalence and Impact on Interoperability
Mr. Scott Mansfield
Abstract:
Modeling is the backbone of interoperable systems. There is a common misconception that all modeling is created equal. This presentation covers the important differences between Information and Data Modeling, how not all modeling protocols and languages are the same, and how even when using the same modeling protocols and languages there are issues with system integrity and cross standards development organization (SDO) interoperability.
