“…Further, unlike [53], our work focuses on 5G mid-band. Other works aim at understanding throughput predictability at high-bands [52], physical layer latency [25], mobility management [36], power consumption [54,66] as well as performance implications to specific applications like video streaming [54,59], or to the broader application ecosystem from the user [48] and carrier perspective [57].…”

Fifth Generation (5G) mobile networks mark a significant shift from previous generations of networks. By introducing a flexible design, 5G networks support highly diverse application requirements. Currently, the landscape of previous measurement studies does not shed light on 5G network configuration and the inherent implications to application performance. In this paper, we precisely fill this gap and report our in-depth multi-country measurement study on 5G deployed at mid-bands. This is the common playground for U.S. and European carriers. Our findings reveal key aspects on how carriers configure their network, including spectrum utilization, frame configuration, resource allocation and their implication on the application performance.

“…However, this advantage is countered by severe path loss due to environmental absorption and blockages, which limit propagation distances to a few meters. Consequently, high-frequency links may experience wild and frequent fluctuations in link capacity, leading to a decrease in the overall network performance [81]. Visible Light Communication (VLC) has the potential to provide optical-like performance, offering ultra-high bandwidths with zero electromagnetic interference.…”

“…The primary research directions of the MLdriven physical layer include channel coding, synchronization, positioning, and channel estimation. ML-based channel state prediction will also be very beneficial, especially in noisy and degraded channels with significant time variations in the link capacity [81]. Some ML methods at the Media Access Control (MAC) layer are also important [90].…”

Holographic-type communication (HTC) is on the verge of revolutionizing current communication paradigms. It will seamlessly connect people from distant locations through a fully immersive experience that will engage all five senses: sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. However, the practical realization and widespread adoption of HTC impose significant demands on current networks and enduser devices. While recent studies have primarily focused on discussing the HTC challenges and potential research directions, this paper takes a further step by evaluating the capabilities of wireless networks to meet HTC requirements. Specifically, it highlights the limitations of the fifth-generation (5G) networks by identifying HTC-related Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and explores the potential of the sixth-generation (6G) networks. Moreover, it not only proposes potential research approaches for HTC enhancement but also analyzes their impact on the challenges in HTC implementation. Finally, the paper questions the ubiquitous potential of 6G, suggesting that a coordinated approach leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) for jointly optimizing user sites and communication networks is the most promising strategy, rather than solely relying on the capabilities of specific network generations.

“…This technology supports six-degree of freedom (6DoF) of object viewing (including three dimensions of head movement -yaw, pitch, and roll, as well as three dimensions of body movement -left-right, forward-backwards, and up-down), creating fully immersive experiences during a teleportation session [3]- [7]. In comparison to traditional video applications, today's holographic teleportation applications are still in their infancy, in the sense that large-scale communications over the global public Internet are difficult to support due to both the application's requirement for high data rates and the lack of agility in dealing with complex and uncertain network conditions during content transmissions [8]- [10]. It is a unique feature of holographic teleportation to simultaneously teleport people from multiple remote Internet locations to the same view space in an immersive fashion, mimicking the effect of group-based interactions in a common physical space.…”

Live holographic teleportation is an emerging media application that allows Internet users to communicate in a fully immersive environment. One distinguishing feature of such an application is the ability to teleport multiple objects from different network locations into the receiver's field of view at the same time, mimicking the effect of group-based communications in a common physical space. In this case, live teleportation frames originated from different sources must be precisely synchronised at the receiver side to ensure user experiences with eliminated perception of motion misalignment effect. For the very first time in the literature, we quantify the motion misalignment between remote sources with different network contexts in order to justify the necessity of such frame synchronisation operations. Based on this motivation, we propose HoloSync, a novel edgecomputing-based scheme capable of achieving controllable frame synchronisation performances for multi-source holographic teleportation applications. We carry out systematic experiments on a real system with the HoloSync scheme in terms of frame synchronisation performances in specific network scenarios, and their sensitivity to different control parameters.
