5g Era Project

5G-ERA’s main aim is to provide an enhanced 5G experimentation facility and relevant NetApps for 3rd party application developers so as to provide them with a 5G experimentation playground to test and qualify their applications, prior to porting them in live 5G Networks. There is also a requirement for open platforms that provide access to networks resources which can then be used to develop NetApps supporting requirements and developments from specific vertical sectors. 5G-ERA addresses successfully the 5G innovations for verticals with third party services. The improved usability, more efficient resource management and faster NetApp development will be delivered as part of the project’s use cases on open experimental platforms. Project Objectives: Objective 1: An intent-based networking paradigm for optimised QoE to support enhanced robot autonomy in real-world applications Objective 2: A 5G-ERA middleware which enables cloud native resource provision over autonomous robots Objective 3: Standardised APIs by integrating ROS with OSM Objective 4: Showcase enhanced QoE on experimental facilities for vertical applications
