5th Generation
Enhanced ROBOT Autonomy
5G-ERA (5G Enhanced Robot Autonomy), aims alongside all other ICT-41 projects to provide an enhanced 5G experimentation facility and relevant Network Applications for 3rd party application developers so as to provide them with a 5G experimentation playground to test and qualify their applications.
Objectives

An intent-based networking paradigm for optimised QoE to support enhanced robot autonomy in real-world applications

A 5G-ERA middleware which enables cloud native resource provision over autonomous robots

Standardised APIs by integrating ROS with OSM

Showcase enhanced QoE on experimental facilities for vertical applications

5G-ERA results and solutions presented at IROS 2023
October 11, 2023
Mr Adrián Lendínez (University of Bedfordshire, UK) and Dr. Lanfranco Zanzi (NEC Laboratories Europe GmbH, Germany) represented 5G-ERA at the 2023 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2023) that was held between October 1 – 5, 2023 at Huntington Place in Detroit, Michigan, USA.
During the conference, the paper titled “Enhancing 5G-enabled Robots Autonomy by Radio-Aware Semantic Maps” was presented.
IROS is a large and impactful forum for the international robotics research community to explore the frontier of science and technology in intelligent robots and smart machines, emphasizing future directions and the latest approaches, designs, and outcomes.
The theme of IROS 2023 was “The Next Generation of Robotics,” so the conference aimed to particularly highlight the contributions of younger researchers and to help accelerate the future contributions of all those just entering the field.
