       How is ETSI currently involved         Nicolas CHUBERRE  graduated  in    He has chaired the SatCom Working
       in standardization for NTN?            1988  from  the  Ecole  Supérieure   Group of Networld2020 technology
                                              d’Ingénieur  en  Electronique  et   platforms for nine years, and was a
       ETSI’s   Technical   Committee   on    Electrotechnique  in  Paris.  After   member  of  the  partnership  board

       has  recently  approved  a  new  Work   design signal processing algorithms,   Nicolas has published several papers
       Item  looking  at  standards  for  free   Medium  Access  Control  protocols   on  innovative  Satellite  System
       space optical (FSO) inter-satellite links.   and  test  tools  for  2G  cellular   concepts.  Currently  he  is  defining
                                              handsets  and  systems  assembly,   and  developing  Satellite  Solutions
       A second priority is the development   he  joined  Thales  Alenia  Space   for 5G and 6G systems. In addition,
       of   harmonized   standards   for      to  manage  the  development  of   he  is  the  lead  representative  of
       terminals  operating  with  NTN,       satellite  payload  equipment  and   Thales in 3GPP TSG RAN, where he
       where we’re working jointly with the   the  design  of  advanced  Satellite   is the rapporteur on standardization
       responsible  sub-group  within  ETSI   Communication Systems.             for  the  integration  of  satellite  in
       TC  MSG  (Mobile  Standards  Group).                                      5G.  He  also  chairs  ETSI’s  Satellite
       And  thirdly,  ETSI  may  explore      He  has  successfully  led  several   Communication  and  Navigation
       techniques that are not within 3GPP    European  collaborative  research   Working  Group.  He  is  technical
       scope,  for  example  routing  within   projects in FP6, FP7, H2020 as well   manager  of  the  Horizon  Europe
       multi-orbit constellations.            as ESA ARTES context.              research project 6G-NTN.
