• Sommario/riassunto: This book explores the integration of Machine-Type Communication (MTC) and satellite networks in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT) as the technology advances toward the 6G era. Edited by a team from the University of Oulu and the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, the book provides insights into the motivations, architectural frameworks, and technological challenges associated with this integration. It covers topics such as network support for massive MTC, constellation design for new space applications, medium access control protocols, and cybersecurity for networked machines. Additionally, the book discusses the role of networking in MTC and satellite connectivity, regulatory and spectrum opportunities, and the potential business prospects of integrated networks. It is aimed at researchers, engineers, and professionals interested in the future of IoT and satellite communications.
