Reproducible Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Measurement Experiments in 6G Networks under Mobility Conditions

6G networks are expected to support a wide variety of use cases from different vertical sectors with stringent requirements in terms of different key performance indicators (KPIs). As new experimental testbeds are being deployed to demonstrate and evaluate new technologies, it is important to perform systematic and reproducible experiments for measuring the relevant KPIs. However, there is a lack of tools for automated KPI measurement in mobility scenarios, which is specially relevant to analyze dynamic behaviors, such as handover events. In this paper, we address this gap with the proposal and implementation of a new tool to automate KPI measurement experiments from the terminal-side under programmable mobility scenarios. Our experimental results, validated on the 6G-SANDBOX’s Málaga platform, demonstrate the potential of our solution for achieving reproducibility in KPI measurement experiments under mobility conditions.

Abstract

6G networks are expected to support a wide variety of use cases from different vertical sectors with stringent requirements in terms of different key performance indicators (KPIs). As new experimental testbeds are being deployed to demonstrate and evaluate new technologies, it is important to perform systematic and reproducible experiments for measuring the relevant KPIs. However, there is a lack of tools for automated KPI measurement in mobility scenarios, which is specially relevant to analyze dynamic behaviors, such as handover events. In this paper, we address this gap with the proposal and implementation of a new tool to automate KPI measurement experiments from the terminal-side under programmable mobility scenarios. Our experimental results, validated on the 6G-SANDBOX’s Málaga platform, demonstrate the potential of our solution for achieving reproducibility in KPI measurement experiments under mobility conditions.
