Three-Stage Precoding Scheme Based on Nullforming and Subarray Partitioning for Aerial–Terrestrial Spectrum Sharing

Non-terrestrial networks have been recognized as a key technology for providing a ubiquitous coverage in 5G, 6G, and beyond, where high-altitude platform stations (HAPSs) are an indispensable node.Spectrum sharing in integrated HAPS-terrestrial networks is an important task for achieving high spectral efficiency.This study proposes a novel three-st
