6G-XR

This use case designed and implemented QUIC-based real-time media transmission suitable for the 6G-XR Remote Renderer. Standardised QUIC can migrate client connections between networks such as WiFi and cellular without breaking connections. Automated measurement tools were developed to quantify the effects of different protocol settings, which we used to evaluate the currently unknown impact of client mobility on the quality of real-time media in a Mininet-based testbed and on the 6G-XR South Node. Our solution has been integrated into the 6G-XR Remote Renderer. The code was released as open-source.

The improved Remote Renderer enables inherent end-to-end security, fate sharing in control and data planes, reduced connection establishment times, improved Quality of Experience (QoE), etc. These contributions enable novel XR applications involving client mobility.
