Abstract
During this talk I will tell shortly about 6G research in Finland and specifically at VTT, describing our activities in space and building an advanced test network environment that we are also operating in several locations in Finland. The main focus in the talk is in the satellite communications research, covering recent projects and activities done in 5G and 6G fields. You will learn about our experimental satellite W-Cube and propagation experiments, joint communication and sensing activities to detect space debris with satellite-based 5G communication signals, dynamic spectrum management activities and description of the on-going satellite IoT project for which we are seeking collaboration and joint publication activities.
