From 5G to 6G Support for CAM (5G6GCAM)

Tuesday, 4 June 2024, 16:00-17:30, Room Toucan 2
Session Chair:
  • Konstantinos V. Katsaros (Institute of Communications and Computer Systems (ICCS), GR)

The 5th generation of mobile networks promised significant qualitative and quantitative advances for multiple vertical domains, including the fast-evolving automotive sector. Throughout the last years a series of 5G-PPP Projects have focused on Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) services, identifying a series of challenges and opportunities, investigating solutions and assessing the expected advances on the vertical sector. Recently started SNS Research Projects follow-up on these efforts, taking a step further towards the 6th generation of mobile networks; next challenges and opportunities are identified, and experimentation aims to highlight the added value and shape insights on 6G support for CAM.
This Special Session aims to shed light on this evolution and the transition from 5G to 6G. The objective is exactly to track the evolution of problems and solutions/achievements, capture the lessons learned and, importantly, understand the prospects towards next generation services. A carefully shaped series of talks will serve this purpose, bringing in experiences and exposing ongoing and forthcoming activities from corresponding projects spanning both 5G-PPP and SNS. The talks will also explore the gradual maturation of technology as this is captured in the Strategic Deployment Agenda (SDA), shaping deployment prospects. Taking a holistic approach, the Special Session will additionally explore the perspective of the CCAM community on connectivity challenges and prospects, by hosting the views of one of the currently ongoing CCAM Partnership Horizon Europe projects.
