Report: The importance of preventing 6G SAG (Service Adoption Gap) – Omnisperience

As engineers and scientists begin to develop 6G technology, uncomfortable questions need to be addressed, including what the point of 6G is, how it will be monetised, and what sort of experience it will deliver.
5G has taught us that the ‘build it and they will come’ approach won’t work. In contrast, 6G must be customer centric, not network centric, and start with a far clearer proposition around customer value.

In this green paper we explore what’s needed to make 6G a success.

Beyond Speed: Promoting Social and Economic Opportunities through 6G and Beyond – Next G Alliance

Beyond Speed defines specific social and economic outcomes to which Next G can contribute, key aspects of digital equity, defining a trustworthy 6G network and how Next G connectivity will directly impact economic growth. Challenges in areas including supply chain and equal access are addressed as well as those that may arise when defining QoL metrics. This paper also presents promising areas for future research and issues a call to action for research, development, policies and business models.

A comprehensive survey on quantum computer usage: How many qubits are employed for what purposes? – Arxiv

Most news on quantum computers (QCs) consists of outstanding
experiments, and thereby we may overlook how typical usages of QCs have been. Such oversight,
if exists, could lead to an insufficient understanding of the present situation in the research and development of QCs and may
result in possible obstacles to long-term research design. In other words, we need an alternative perspective based on typical
usages as well as the standard one based on monumental experiments.

A Dynamic QoS Guarantee Mechanism in NFV-enabled Networks – IEEE

A Dynamic QoS Guarantee Mechanism in NFV-enabled Networks – IEEE

In this paper, we focus on the multi-traffic scheduling in VNF-based service orchestration. We propose a dynamic multi-service Quality of Service (QoS) Guarantee approach, which aims to reduce data coupling between multiple services and bandwidth preemption. Then we devise a service scheduling algorithm to allocate link resources for network services. The simulation results demonstrate that our method efficiently reduces network congestion and ensures high-priority services’ trouble-free running.

Optimal energy-harvesting design for AF and DF two-way relay beamforming in 6G – Eurasip

Optimal energy-harvesting design for AF and DF two-way relay beamforming in 6G – Eurasip

Energy consumption is an important point which is crucial for green communications in 6G era, especially for those networks with limited life span or affected by dangerous environments where batteries are inconvenient to be changed. Therefore, energy harvesting (EH) has become a very attractive research field in recent years. In this paper, a new type of two-way EH relay beamforming system with two transceivers and many single-antenna relays is designed.

Internet of wearable things: Advancements and benefits from 6G technologies – ScienceDirect

Internet of wearable things: Advancements and benefits from 6G technologies – ScienceDirect

The great achievements in electronics, automation, and digital communication technologies in the sixth-generation (6G) era has significantly accelerated the development of smart wearables and the personal ecosystems realizing the Internet of wearable things (IoWT). As the IoWT technologies have not matured yet, a keen knowledge of current states and future research trends is of importance to promote the popularization of the technology. In this review article, we investigate state-of-the-art characteristics of IoWT to identify its advancements and benefits from 6G technologies.

LEO Satellite Access Network (LEO-SAN) Towards 6G: Challenges and Approaches – ArXiv

LEO Satellite Access Network (LEO-SAN) Towards 6G: Challenges and Approaches – ArXiv

This paper aims at revealing the main technical issues that have not been fully addressed by the existing LEO-SAN designs, from three aspects namely random access, beam management and Doppler-resistant transmission technologies. Promising technologies to address these challenges are also discussed, respectively. Finally, the future research directions are envisioned.

Towards Dependable 6G Networks – TechRxiv

Towards Dependable 6G Networks – TechRxiv

6G communication networks must be highly dependable. We take four dependability concepts such as reliability, availability, safety and security, and discuss the dependability of 6G networks. This
article, in summary, provides interesting insights into existing
challenges and advocates future research through highlighting
the most important research directions to make 6G dependable.
