EuCNC 2025 & 6G Summit 6G-SANDBOX Publication

At EuCNC & 6G Summit, Filip Ivanovic from Keysight Technologies) presented the 6G-SANDBOX paper “Developing Adaptive Calibration and Benchmarking Methods for 6G Performance Measurement”, building on insights from Deliverable 5.3 ‘Intermediate Report on KPI and KVI Validation’.

 This paper explores the development of an Adaptive Calibration methodology, which can be used to provide context to results in the 6G space so that to ensure platform agnosticism. Exemplary results of its application in the 6G-SANDBOX project, exploiting four (4) different and geographically dispersed experimentation platforms, are presented hereby.

EuCNC 2025 & 6G Summit Conference paper – Developing Adaptive Calibration and Benchmarking Methods for 6G Performance Measurement – Implementation and Conclusions from 6G-SANDBOX

The paper “Developing Adaptive Calibration and Benchmarking Methods for 6G Performance Measurement – Implementation and Conclusions from 6G-SANDBOX” presented by Filip Ivanovic (Keysight) at EuCNC 2025 & 6G Summit during the OPE1 – Measurements and Management of 5G/6G Networks session, is directly derived from insights in the 6G-SANDBOX Deliverable 5.3: Intermediate Report on KPI and KVI Validation. In 6G, the use of virtualized and Service-Based Architectures (SBA) makes performance results harder to interpret compared to previous generations. To ensure meaningful experimentation, unbiased by the limitations of specific B5G/6G platforms, 6G-SANDBOX developed an Adaptive Calibration methodology. This approach enables platform-agnostic performance assessment and has been validated across four geographically distributed testbeds.

Open Call Winner 2 – REACT-6G project – Releases a demo video

REACT-6G is an extension of the 6G-SANDBOX testbed designed to provide a complete closed loop for intelligent 6G network functionalities. REACT-6G integrates advanced RAN equipment, interfaces, a near real-time Radio Intelligent Controller (RIC), and ML-powered xApps to enable intelligent, energy-efficient resource allocation in realistic 6G deployments.

Key features delivered by REACT-6G include:

1. Fully operational O-RAN compliant RAN components, including a high-performance server hosting RIC/CU and Open5GS core as virtual machines.

2. An O-RAN compliant Distributed Unit (DU) connected via high-speed 10G interfaces to existing RUs (Liteon and Benetel).

3. Two ML-assisted xApps for energy-efficient power control and data-rate maximization of RUs.

4. A Conflict Manager within the RIC that resolves conflicts between xApps based on configurable policies.
