The quest for autonomous mobile networks introdu-ces the need for fully native support for Network Intelligence (NI) algorithms, typically based on Artificial Intelligence tools like Machine Learning, which shall be gathered into a NI stratum. The NI stratum is responsible for the full automation of the NI operation in the network, including the management of the life-cycle of NI algorithms, in a way that is synergic with traditional network management and orchestration framework. In this regard, the NI stratum must accommodate the unique requirements of NI algorithms, which differ from the ones of, e.g., virtual network functions, and thus plays a critical role in the native integration of NI into current network architectures. In this paper, we leverage the recently proposed concept of Network Intelligence Orchestrator (NIO) to (i) define the specific requirements of NI algorithms, and (ii) discuss the procedures that shall be supported by an NIO sitting in the NI stratum to effectively manage NI algorithms. We then (iii) introduce a reference implementation of the NIO defined above using cloud-native open-source tools.

This paper describes the integration between the Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) and UWS Slice Manager within the European project 6G Brains. The proposed solution allows for End-To-End(E2E) Network Slicing, enabling fine-grain and optimal traffic engineering of the Network components. This work's findings ensure an E2E connection. The solution allows external services to create slices and attach them easily. The UWS Network Slice Manager allows for detailed monitoring of the network slice's inner components. With this information, ONAP can improve the network by creating and optimising slices on demand. The validation of the integration presents the workflow to create and attach slices. These operations enable autonomous workflows for deploying E2E Services that ensure the QoS/QoE in the network.

Bluetooth mesh is a recent addition to the IoT connectivity landscape. It provides a simple and efficient short-range wireless mesh networking solution. This paper evaluates the performance of a Bluetooth mesh-based IoT sensor data gath-ering network in a real-world office environment. It provides sug-gestions to improve the reliability of the data gathering process. Specifically, the effect of various Bluetooth mesh protocol-related and non-protocol-related parameters is evaluated. The protocol-related parameters explored in this paper include the Publish Retransmit Count (PRC), the Network Transmit Count (NTC), and the Relay Retransmit Count (RRC). The non-protocol-related parameters include the packet-sending randomization interval and the packet payload redundancy. Through extensive experiments, the results show that a high degree of reliability, 99%, can be achieved with a combined use of these parameters. These results provide insights and shed light on configuring a Bluetooth mesh network to achieve high reliability for sensor data gathering.

Continuous and reliable unlicensed wireless con-nectivity solutions could play a fundamental role in the next generation of ports. To provide secure and reliable video moni-toring, Automated Rubber- Tyred Gantry cranes (AutoRTGs) rely on wired cable reel connections. By adopting 5G technology, smart ports can eliminate the need for fixed wired connections in favour of low-latency wireless communication, allowing effective communication and control. However, occasionally it is better to leverage complementary wireless technologies to carry resource-intensive traffic like large amounts of video data in uplink (UL). As a result, Wi-Fi is being considered as a potential solution. Wireless networks are widely utilized for their quick installation and simplicity. However, the presence of multiple unlicensed Wireless Access Networks could impact the wireless connection performance due to the possibility of channel interference. This paper studies how the utilization of a Multipath Trans-mission Control Protocol (MPTCP) wireless system can serve as an alternative to a fixed fiber cable reel. To minimize the latency, we propose the simultaneous use of two Wi-Fi 6 networks and MPTCP's redundant scheduler to send video streams from the crane to a remote control center (RCC) desk. We compare different wired and wireless topology alternatives to assess the most reliable network configuration when the AutoRTG is in operation. Thus, we evaluate each topology with dynamic quality of service (QoS) measurements. We find that duplicating packets with MPTCP over two Wi-Fi 6 networks allows for stable and reliable low-latency video streaming, even in instances where one of the networks experiences sudden high delay peaks. Finally, we discuss how the utilization of Wi-Fi and MPTCP can be a choice to support and complement 5G in situations with heavy uplink traffic.

The projected sub-THz (100 - 300 GHz) part of the upcoming 6G standard will require a careful design of the waveform and choice of slot structure. Not only that the design of the physical layer for 6G will be driven by ambitious system performance requirements, but also hardware limitations, specific to sub-THz frequencies, pose a fundamental design constraint for the waveform. In this contribution, general guidelines for the waveform design are given, together with a non-exhaustive list of exemplary waveforms that can be used to meet the design requirements.

The5G mobile communication technology provides a faster transmission speed, larger bandwidth, and the ability to connect a greater number of devices than 4G. However, ensuring the successful transition to 5G-Advanced requires addressing various security vulnerabilities and threats. It is imperative in 5G-Advanced and higher mobile communications to address the security risks that have arisen in current mobile communication systems. In this paper, we perform a simulation of scenario-based data hijacking attacks for a 5G-Advanced core network. The conducted simulation results demonstrate that two different data hijacking attacks are possible, with sensitive information being vulnerable to exploitation through security weaknesses such as the lack of encryption for internal communication and inadequate authentication of internal components in the 5G-Advanced core network.

This paper presents the design, manufacturing and characterization of a parasitic patch microstrip D-band antenna and a 16-element segmented antenna array on a multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) targeted for 5G applications. The antennas are manufactured using printed circuit board technology with semi-additive processing (mSAP) of conductors on a multilayered substrate. The measured maximum gains for a single antenna and a 16-element array are respectively 9 dBi and 16.5 dBi at 157 GHz. The measured antenna array input matching bandwidth is 20 GHz.

The vision of ubiquitous network connectivity to fuel uninterrupted services to any user has materialized with the Fifth-Generation (5G) of mobile technology and will probably find maturity on the way to developing 6G. To reach this goal, 5G technology and its evolution (B5G), as well as Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC), alongside Machine Learning (ML) will play pivotal roles. This work sheds light onto a test bed development and initial experimentation results obtained to enable airlines' passengers on-board an aircraft with broadband connectivity as an advancement toward ubiquitous access. We detail our research and experimentation activity as part of the H2020 AI@EDGE research project around a 5G network and an edge-cloud built on top of aviation-certified hardware and off-the-shelf servers. The edge-cloud is used to develop and test MEC applications that can be seen as the next generation of services offered to airlines and to airlines' passengers and that rely on machine learning. The 5G network is integrated into a larger test-bed and connected to a 5G core on the ground by means of a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite backhaul such as Starlink.

The proliferation of 5G technology is enabling vertical industries to improve their day-to-day operations by leveraging enhanced Quality of Service (QoS). One of the key enablers for such 5G performance is network slicing, which allows telco operators to logically split the network into various virtualized networks, whose configuration and thus performance can be tailored to verticals and their low-latency and high throughput requirements. However, given the end-to-end perspective of 5G ecosystems where slicing needs to be applied on all network segments, including radio, edge, transport, and core, managing the deployment of slices is becoming excessively demanding. There are also various verticals with strict requirements that need to be fulfilled. Thus, in this paper, we focus on the solution for dynamic and quality-aware network slice management and orchestration, which is simultaneously orchestrating network slices that are deployed on top of the three 5G testbeds built for transport and logistics use cases. The slice orchestration system is dynamically interacting with the testbeds, while at the same time monitoring the real-time performance of allocated slices, which is triggering decisions to either allocate new slices or reconfigure the existing ones. In this paper, we illustrate the scenarios where dynamic provisioning of slices is required in one of the testbeds while taking into account specific latency/throughput/location requirements coming from the verticals and their end users.

Physical Layer Authentication (PLA) can be a lightweight alternative to conventional security schemes such as certificates or Message Authentication Codes (MACs) for secure message transmission within Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC) scenarios. Single features such as Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) are however not providing sufficient authentication accuracy. Therefore, multi-feature techniques for PLA are introduced within this work and evaluated using a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) based testbed in a mobile URLLC campus network scenario. Linear supervised classification is proposed for PLA and evaluated under different attacker scenarios. The results show promising authentication performances in most of the evaluated senarions and can be increased by the application of multi-feature authentication.

Single features such as Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) are however not providing sufficient authentication accuracy. Therefore, multi-feature techniques for PLA are introduced within this work and evaluated using a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) based testbed in a mobile URLLC campus network scenario. Linear supervised classification is proposed for PLA and evaluated under different attacker scenarios. The results show promising authentication performances in most of the evaluated senarions and can be increased by the application of multi-feature authentication.","PeriodicalId":65870,"journal":{"name":"公共管理高层论坛","volume":"306 1","pages":"30-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76498457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
