The concept of network slicing has been one of the standout features in 5G (no pun intended). It allows operators to offer logically isolate...

As mobile networks continue to evolve to support increasingly immersive and responsive services, the importance of consistent low latency ha...

Some in the #6G research and standards community seem to be acknowledging the challenges presented by the "maximalist" vision in the ITU's #IMT2030 framework…

RF jamming poses a severe threat to 5G/6G networks, increasing packet latency being especially disruption to mission-critical URLLC services. This paper introduces a proactive Jamming Detection xApp (...

Opener is an open-source reference implementation of the DECT NR+ protocol stack, formally known as DECT-2020 NR, used for massive IoT (mMTC) and low-latency (URLLC) machine-to-machine communication applications. It is developed by the Opener Initiative, supported by the OpenDECT-X project, and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR). The standard itself supports up to one million devices per km², years of battery life for low-power sensors, non-IP and IPv6 traffic, mesh networking, and random-access operation. It is also designed for ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) with sub-millisecond air-interface latency, a 99.999% reliability target, and scheduled access for bounded latency. Contrary to 3GPP cellular communication networks, DECT NR+ does not rely on centralized infrastructure and uses context-based rather than fixed device roles. It operates in the license-exempt spectrum in the 1880–1930 MHz range (1.9 GHz), and will be extended to the 3.8–4.2 GHz band, at least in [...] The post Opener is an open-source reference implementation of the DECT NR+ massive IoT, low-latency standard appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.

This research looks at how smart microgrids can manage the large amount of information generated by devices such as solar panels, batteries, EV chargers, sensors and controllers.

Ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) requires precise identification of spatial regions where the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) falls below an outage threshold. In this context, an outage refers to instances in which SNR falls below a specified threshold, which, for URLLC, can be as strin…
