- Abstract
- This paper presents a vision and research directions for 5G URLLC evolving towards 6G URLLC. 5G offers fundamental differences from the former generation in that it aims for industrial applications. URLLC, one of the novel service scenarios 5G introduced, addresses stringent latency and reliability requirements for mission-critical and industrial applications. The application of 5G URLLC to smart factories triggers the introduction of a shared factory concept. And URLLC will keep evolving until 6G URLLC emerges in the market with more robust performance around 2030. Although satellite communication has gained significant importance owing to its capability to deliver a broader coverage than terrestrial networks, the application of the LEO satellite mesh network shall be beneficial to reduce the latency over long-distance communication links. LEO satellite mesh network will play a pivotal role in delivering 6G URLLC service.
