Towards Federated, Green, and Resilient 6G Non-Terrestrial Networks

Sarath Babu, Victor Baños-Gonzalez, Mario Cordina, Debabrata Dalai et autres

This study focuses on future Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) integrated with Terrestrial Networks (TN) for future 5G/6G systems. NTN envisions a 3D architecture, where Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks will play a key role in bridging the digital divide, complementing the gradual …

Satellite-Enabled Two-Tier UAV Vineyard Inspection with Multispectral Smart Sampling and Adaptive Path Planning

Konstantinos Konstantoudakis, Kyriaki Christaki, Tomaso de Cola, Roshith Sebastian et autres

Vineyard monitoring requires efficient methods for detecting plant stress and disease while limiting flight time, data volume, and labour effort. This paper presents a satellite-enabled two-tier UAV workflow for semi-automated vineyard inspection. The proposed approach combines high-altitude multispectral scanning, NDVI-based point-of-interest identification, …

Advances on Unified Architecture for Open RAN-enabled Distributed and Scalable 6G Networks

Luis Blancoc, Cristian J. Vaca-Rubio, Jorge Baranda, Farhana Javed et autres

UNITY-6G introduces a AI-natively framework that unifies terrestrial (TN), non-terrestrial (NTN), and non-public networks (NPN), treating connectivity, computing, and intelligence as interdependent resources. The architecture utilizes an Inter-Domain Management Orchestrator (IDMO) based on Service-Based Management Architecture (SBMA) principles to coordinate services across …
