37th ICSSC Conference

Space Communications, Navigation and Earth Observation Systems in the 5G Era

37th ICSSC Conference
Program

The 37th International Communications Satellite Systems Conference (ICSSC) and its Colloquium, one of the most influential technical conferences on satellite communications systems, will be held in Okinawa, Japan from Tuesday October 29th through Friday November 1st, 2019.

The first day, Tuesday, October 29th, is dedicated to the Colloquium which is entitled Disruptive Expansion of Space Laser Communications. The Colloquium complements the ICSSC’s technical sessions and panels and attendance requires a separate registration.

The 37th ICSSC technical sessions and panels, scheduled from Wednesday, October 30th through Friday, November 1st are under the joint conference theme of Space Communications, Navigation and Earth Observation Systems in the 5G Era. The theme of the 37th ICSSC is Ensuring a Realistic Migration, Harmonization and Integration of Space Based Communications Facilities Within the 5G Network. Satellite communication industries in the Asia-Pacific region and their activities will be presented during this AIAA Co-Sponsored conference.
