Network slicing is a key feature of 5G that enables network operators to physically segregate traffic on different radio networks, slice a single network, or combine the capacity of multiple networks and slice the pooled resources. In this paper, we study the network slice-related emergence topics such as slice orchestration, resource federation, and network slice trust and security. Moreover, we introduce our new 5G testbed that helps researchers and students to showcase, test, and validate their 5G services, prototypes, and algorithms on. We test and validate the testbed using two real-time experiments namely (1) Monitoring the violations of the SLA for different performance metrics such as CPU, memory utilization, and network bandwidth, and (2) red team/blue team exercise using Metasploit, Ksniff, and Snort.

We describe a prototype of Science Traffic as a Service (STAAS), a decentralized, cooperative system to collect, filter and distribute a diverse collection of real and synthetic data traffic to the global experimental research testbed user community. Available on-demand to networking experimenters through a web dashboard, the tool promises to elevate traffic selection and distribution to a first class experimental instrumentation resource. We believe the alternatives to providing this service on large-scale federated testbeds are increasingly unworkable for experimenters. As backbone networks increasingly deploy 100–1000 Gbps communications links we are moving beyond the point where experimenters can reasonably be asked to independently, safely, and efficiently create test traffic that provides the realism that their investigations will demand. We seek to deploy our prototype at campuses and testbeds attached to the emerging FABRIC mid-scale networking research infrastructure. We describe prototype design, operation and implementation, and how it is integrated with existing campus networking infrastructure. We explain how remote experimenters will request and acquire network traffic to study. We detail our process for forwarding campus traffic onto the experimental testbed, while striving to preserve both the timing integrity of the flows and the data privacy of their payloads.†

The effects of crosstalk and fragmentation cause unnecessary blocking in space-division multiplexing-based elastic optical networks. A routing, modulation, core, and spectrum allocation (RMCSA) algorithm is proposed in this paper using a novel score function that balances the crosstalk and fragmentation. Reduced blocking and fragmentation levels are observed when compared with the benchmark algorithms.

5G-LAN is an enterprise local area network (LAN) that leverages 5G technology for wireless connectivity instead of WiFi. 5G technology is unique: it uses network slicing to distinguish customers in the same traffic class using new QoS technologies in the RF domain. This unique ability is not supported by most enterprise LANs, which rely primarily on DiffServ-like technologies that distinguish among traffic classes rather than customers. We first show that this mismatch in QoS between the 5G network and the LAN affects the accuracy of insights from the LAN-resident analytics applications. We systematically analyze the root causes of the QoS mismatch and propose a first-of-a-kind 5G-LAN orchestrator (5GLoR). 5GLoR is a middleware that applications can use to preserve the QoS of their 5G data streams through the enterprise LAN. In most cases, the loss of QoS is not due to the oversubscription of LAN switches but primarily due to the inefficient assignment of 5G data to queues at ingress and egress ports. 5GLoR periodically analyzes the status of these queues, provides suitable DSCP identifiers to the application, and installs relevant switch re-write rules (to change DSCP identifiers between switches) to continuously preserve the QoS of the 5G data through the LAN. 5GLoR improves the RTP frame level delay and inter-frame delay by 212% and 122%, respectively, for the WebRTC application. Additionally, with 5GLoR, the accuracy of two example applications (face detection and recognition) improved by 33%, while the latency was reduced by about 25%. Our experiments show that the performance (accuracy and latency) of applications on a 5G-LAN performs well with the proposed 5GLoR compared to the same applications on MEC. This is significant because 5G-LAN offers an order of magnitude more computing, networking, and storage resources to the applications than the resource-constrained MEC, and mature enterprise technologies can be used to deploy, manage, and update IoT applications.

It is a key challenge and obligation for future networks to deliver high-quality wireless for enabling novel services and application to flourish for the benefit of humans on a personal level, for society as a whole, as well as for business and innovation. The dynamics, as well as the heterogeneity of the foreseen 6G system in terms of communication technologies, frequencies used, management frameworks, etc. make the need for flexibility of utmost importance. Although several steps are being made to this direction, flexible networks, capable of dynamically adapting to changes, (re)configuring themselves, exploiting highly dynamic resources in terms of availability in a three- dimensional network space is still a challenge from different perspectives. This paper identifies the key challenges, technical enablers, as well as current efforts towards the realization of the 3D, flexible 6G “network of networks” concept.

5G becomes a key enabler for Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM), due to its unprecedented performance characteristics. For CAM services extending across national borders, the crossing between two countries is still challenging, as it is extremely hard to guarantee the connectivity service and application session continuity when Handing Over (HO) from one Mobile Network Operator (MNO) to the other. 5G-MOBIX sets out to investigate service assurance aspects and perform large-scale field trials on real Cross-Border Crossing (CBC). This paper presents the Greece-Turkey CBC 5G Deployment, discussing the roaming options in relation to technology capabilities, limitations and optimisations, and then summarises the key results from the extensive trials on four use cases that have been selected to be investigated in the GR-TR CBC.

The use of real-time video-audio and vital patient data significantly improves the effectiveness of remote assessment in emergencies, compared with the current audio-only pre-hospital communications. This was found during recently completed 5G trials, involving ambulance professionals. The aim of the trials was to investigate how 5G-enabled video-audio and vital patient data monitoring can benefit remote patient assessment and what are the potential implementation constraints. An indoor 5G standalone network was used for the trials, with measured round-trip time as low as 7 ms. With the trials, it was verified that the decision making was quicker and more accurate when the remotely based Chief Medical Officer of an ambulance service received real-time video-audio complimented with vital patient data (for example electrocardiogram) from the paramedic. This meant that the pre-hospital triage significantly improved accelerating patient treatment and avoiding unnecessary conveyance to the hospital. Recommendations are also given addressing the observed implementation constraints.

A big challenge of autonomous mobility is guaranteeing safety in all possible extreme and unexpected scenarios. For the last 25 years, the sector therefore focused on improving the automation functions. Nevertheless, autonomous mobility is still not part of daily life. The 5G-Blueprint project follows an alternative approach: direct control teleoperation. This concept relies on 5G connectivity to remove the physical coupling between the human driver or sailor and the controlled vehicle or vessel. This way, automation and teleoperation can be combined as complementary technologies, assigning them to different segments of a single trajectory, realizing driverless mobility in a safe, scalable, and cost-efficient manner. However, this mode of operation brings demanding connectivity requirements, such as high uplink bandwidth, low latency and ultra-reliability at the same time, for which the potential of 5G needs to be studied and explored. In this paper, we present our performance validation strategies to pursue 5G-enhanced teleoperation in real-life environment (e.g., public roads, busy sea ports), including some initial results that we collected during the in-country piloting phase.

6G networks will greatly expand the support for data-oriented, autonomous applications for over the top (OTT) and networking use cases. The success of these use cases will depend on the availability of big data sets which is not practical in many real scenarios due to the highly dynamic behavior of systems and the cost of data collection procedures. Transfer learning (TL) is a promising approach to deal with these challenges through the sharing of knowledge among diverse learning algorithms. with TL, the learning rate and learning accuracy can be considerably improved. There are implementation challenges to efficiently deploy and utilize TL in 6G. Here, we initiate this discussion by providing some performance metrics to measure the TL success. We show how infrastructure, application, management, and training planes of 6G can be adapted to handle TL. We provide examples of TL in 6G and highlight the spatio-temporal features of data in 6G that can lead to efficient TL. By simulations, we demonstrate how transferring the quantized neural network weights between two use cases can make a trade-off between overheads and performance and attain more efficient TL in 6G.

Managed Access Systems (MAS) are used extensively in correctional facilities such as prisons in both the US and abroad to restrict cellular access within the facility to authorized devices. As cellular radio-access technologies evolve through 4G into 5G and beyond, there is a corresponding demand to evolve the MAS architecture to prosecute these technologies. This paper describes key technology ideas which can be leveraged to effectively architect a future-proof MAS solution to support correctional-facility needs as well as support new use cases for the emergent In-Building Wireless Managed-Access market.
