Deliverables

Documents, reports (5)

Initial results on semantics and goal- driven RAN impact on control and user plane operation and resiliency.

Provides the initial results on AI/ML-driven semantics communications, their impact on user and control planes, and overall 6G operation, together with theoretical analysis, simulations and in-lab evaluation.

Prototype plan and evaluation methodology

Describes the prototype development plan for five PoCs and defines the evaluation methods and criteria as a reference for further PoC evaluation and architecture analysis.

Initial results on AI/ML predictive PHY solutions and Wireless for AI

Provides the initial results on the AI/ML-driven channel prediction algorithms and AirComp-based Wireless for AI algorithms together with theoretical analysis and simulations.

Initial results on low-EMF antenna designs and algorithms, and non-orthogonal multiple access schemes in the FR1/FR3 bands.

Provides the initial results on the low-EMF FA and RIS designs, non-orthogonal multiple access algorithms, together with theoretical analysis, simulations and in-lab evaluation, and a detailed review and analysis of FR1/FR3 coexistence.

Use case analysis, KPIs and requirements to RAN architecture design

Provides a high-level description of use cases focusing on requirements for the system architecture design. Analyse the implications of KVIs for the system design and identify relevant KPIs for validation and performance evaluation. Provide the architectural design disciplines.
