Research & innovation area

Space Communications

We explore Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), leveraging satellites and airborne infrastructure to extend connectivity beyond traditional limits.

Our research delves into the use of quantum technologies to significantly enhance the security and resilience of these critical space-based communication systems. By focusing on advanced space communications, we create innovative solutions that contribute to a more globally connected and sustainable society, expanding the reach of our research that connects.
