LiteBIRD is a candidate satellite for a strategic large mission of JAXA. With its expected launch in the middle of the 2020s with a H3 rocket, LiteBIRD plans to map the polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation over the full sky with unprecedented precision. The full success of LiteBIRD is to achieve delta r < 0.001, where r is the total error on the tensor-to-scalar ratio r. The required angular coverage corresponds to 2 <= l <= 200, where l is the multipole moment. This allows us to test well-motivated cosmic inflation models. Full-sky surveys for 3years at a Lagrangian point L2 will be carried out for 15 frequency bands between 34 and 448 GHz with two telescopes to achieve the total sensitivity of 2.5 mu K arcmin with a typical angular resolution of 0.5 degrees at 150 GHz. Each telescope is equipped with a half-wave plate system for polarization signal modulation and a focal plane filled with polarization-sensitive TES bolometers. A cryogenic system provides a 100 mK base temperature for the focal planes and 2 K and 5 K stages for optical components.
