UNDERSTANDING REGENERATIVE NTN:
A SHIFT FROM TRANSPARENT SYSTEMS
This section examines regenerative NTN deployment
architectures, spanning both partial and fully regenerative
systems. It also addresses key considerations for the NTN
Control Function (NCF), along with SWaP constraints and
software architecture implications specific to regenerative
deployments.
The section concludes with a discussion of the practical and
operational challenges associated with implementing
regenerative NTN architectures.
First, let's discuss what exactly regenerative NTN is. As
opposed to non-regenerative (or transparent) NTN, which
does not feature onboard processing capabilities, a
regenerative NTN system includes base station functionality
that enables enhanced signal processing and relay
capabilities.
