無線電頻率是通訊傳播發展的關鍵稀有資源，隨著資通訊科技演進、行動通訊成熟、衛星通訊崛起，無線電頻率更顯不足，如何公平、和諧、有效的使用頻譜資源，是各國主管機關的重要課題。B5G時代的現在，我們已看到如Starlink等低軌衛星通訊快速發展，朝6G時代陸海空三維網路邁進，日常生活通訊也將正式從地面拓展到包括衛星通信、高空平台通訊等非地面網路，通訊技術的頻譜需求將進一步提升。非地面網路的發展，不僅帶給網路基礎設施不足地區或不經濟地區提供寬頻網路服務，亦是提升國家網路韌性一環，已是各國數位基礎建設之重要拼圖。此外，公共安全與救難應變(Public Protection and Disaster Relief, PPDR)系統為協助緊急救難單位、組織所使用的無線電通信，應用情境包含因事故、自然災害或人為導致的突發狀況等，透過PPDR機制可確保緊急救難單位通信系統完善與順暢，近年可見各國積極透過行動寬頻與相關應用，規劃PPDR相關頻段及網路之建構。因此，本專題先以「低軌衛星通信的未來：衛星固定及衛星行動服務之發展與頻譜規劃」、「高空通訊平台的崛起：HAPS及HIBS之發展與頻譜規劃」、「公共安全與救難應變通訊發展：PPDR模式分析及頻譜規劃」等6G時代下之國際通傳產業重要議題，探討高空平台、低軌衛星、衛星直連手機、公共安全與救難應變通訊等發展趨勢，與相應之頻譜規劃及分配趨勢。此刻已是因應2030年6G發展，擬定未來頻譜規劃的時間點，專題最後透過「邁向6G時代：我國頻譜使用現況與未來釋出規劃」一文帶出6G發展趨勢，綜整分析我國當前頻譜使用狀況，並根據國際重要議題為即將到來的6G時代提出前瞻性的頻譜規劃建議。
