6G-PATH_D2.1 Platform architecture and verticals

Accordingly, this deliverable presents the following major outcomes: Firstly, it describes the latest reviewed reference 6G-PATH architecture and its components and interface specifications. The primary workflows for onboarding, testing and evaluating vertical use cases are proposed. Secondly, each of the major components is specified with functions, interfaces, inputs, post conditions etc., identified and further details for specific deployment considerations are provided in the Appendices. Thirdly, it defines the blueprints of all the vertical use cases with refined Key Value Indicators (KVIs) and corresponding Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The facilities of each of the use cases are mapped to the reference architecture. Fourthly, it introduces “key” beyond 5G technologies that may be relevant to this project’s scope. Moreover, a potential roadmap for integrating selected technologies into the 6G-PATH architecture is proposed.
