This $300,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Electrical, Communications and Cyber Systems under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The grant supports research at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) to explore novel solutions to address critical operational issues with integrated non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) that encompass space, air, and ground components. The project aims to leverage AI and machine learning techniques to enable scalable and privacy-preserving operation of 6G wireless networks that can support seamless connectivity across diverse environments and applications. The research focuses on developing innovative approaches for tasks such as radio environment analysis, integrated routing, multi-satellite coordination, and privacy-preserving resource allocation. This collaborative effort with South Korean institutions is expected to advance 6G networking theory and practice, strengthen the US/Korean technical workforce, and provide critical infrastructure to address societal and environmental challenges.
