Fifth-generation (5G) networks have been deployed alongside fourth-generation networks in high-traffic areas. The most recent 5G mobile communication access technology includes mmWave and sub-6 GHz C-bands. However, 5G signals possibly interfere with existing radio systems because they are using adjacent and co-channel frequencies.

Cognitive satellite communication (SatCom) is rapidly emerging as a promising technology to overcome the scarcity of the exclusive licensed band model in order to fulfill the increasing demand for high data rate services. The paper addresses power allocation methods for multi-operator multi-beam uplink satellite communication systems co-existing with a Ka-band terrestrial network, using cognitive radio paradigm. Such a scenario is especially challenging because of (i) the coexisting multiple SatCom operators over the cognitive band need to coordinate the use of their resources under limited inter-operator information exchange, and (ii) nonlinear onboard high power amplifier (HPA) which leads to nonlinear interference between users and beams.

Maritime transport has become important due to its ability to internationally unite all continents. In turn, during the last two years, we have observed that the increase of consumer goods has resulted in global shipping deadlocks. In addition, the future goes through the role of ports and efficiency in maritime transport to decarbonize its impact on the environment.
