DESCRIPTION: The one6G Open Lectures are coming back! After a short break\,
  the one6G Association is delighted to announce that Open Lecture 11 will 
 take place on January 22\, 2026\, at 14h00 CET\, focusing on one of the mo
 st transformative areas of 6G research: Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) an
 d their role in achieving seamless network convergence. \n\n Non-terrestri
 al networks (NTNs) refer to radio access networks where the access nodes a
 re carried on platforms hovering high above the terrestrial surface – in
  the air or in space – including high-altitude platforms (HAPs)\, unmann
 ed aerial vehicles (UAVs)\, and satellites. While 5G New Radio (NR) was or
 iginally designed as a terrestrial network (TN)\, it has since been extend
 ed to support NTN components\, expanding coverage for its main services an
 d enabling communication through any network node via the same end device.
  \n\n The vision for 6G goes far beyond this extension. It envisages a ful
 l integration of NTN and TN at the network infrastructure level\, leading 
 to true network convergence. In this future\, all radio services could be 
 delivered seamlessly through any node (terrestrial or non-terrestrial) and
  completely transparent to the user. This paradigm promises to finally rea
 lize the longstanding goal of ubiquitous\, resilient\, and borderless conn
 ectivity\, ensuring service continuity anytime and everywhere – a promis
 e of mobile radio given ever since its previous generations. \n\n Moderate
 d by Dr. Malte Schellmann\, Principal Research Engineer at Huawei Technolo
 gies German Research Center\, one6G Open Lecture 11 will explore the techn
 ological\, architectural\, and regulatory aspects of NTN/TN convergence\, 
 its challenges\, and its potential to close global coverage gaps. The even
 t will feature four distinguished speakers who will share insights into th
 e latest research directions\, use cases\, and standardization activities 
 paving the way toward fully integrated 6G networks. \n\n Join us on Januar
 y 22\, 2026\, at 2 p.m. CET to discover how 6G is extending connectivity b
 eyond the Earth’s surface. \n\n Participation is free\, but registration
  is mandatory. Please click the button below to secure your spot. \n
