Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) are expected to be an effective means of “super coverage extension” to remote areas on the ground, areas outside the communication range of ground base stations, the skies above, and outer space. Particularly, by equipping with base station functionality in low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites, it becomes possible to provide high-capacity connections to the ground with relatively low latency. Utilizing the wide coverage and stability of satellite communication in Beyond 5G and 6G, space networks can be expanded to ground stations, mobile phones, manned and unmanned aerial vehicles, ships, high-altitude platform stations, lunar orbit manned bases, and lunar surface bases. This allows for the organic construction of space networks not only as connecting users but also as base stations and relays, contributing to extensive use-case expansion. By employing high-frequency radio waves and space optical communication, it is believed that the interference problem in complex wireless communication networks can be alleviated. Additionally, the high capacity of space optical communication can be utilized, enabling long-distance quantum communication for key distribution. Establishing computing servers, quantum key distribution servers, and solar power generation and wireless power transmission points in space would enable wide-area resource servicing detached from ground disasters. This could lead to the establishment of a “space is safe and secure” paradigm. In this talk, we discuss the system configuration and the things and services that can be provided when utilizing space networks in 6G.
