Future B5G and 6G mobile communications will shift from facilitating interpersonal communications to supporting Internet of Everything, where intelligent communications with full integration of big data and AI will play an important role in improving network efficiency and providing high-quality service.
The AI-empowered mobile communications, as a rapidly evolving paradigm, demand large amounts of data acquired from real network environment for systematic test and verification.
To this end, we the Purple Mountain Laboratories and the National Mobile Communications Research Laboratory at the Southeast University build the world's first True-data Testbed for 5G/B5G Intelligent Network (TTIN), which comprises
5G/B5G on-site experimental networks
Data acquisition & data warehouse
AI engine & network optimization
In the TTIN, true network data acquisition, storage, standardization, and analysis are available, which enable system-level online verification of B5G/6G-orientated key technologies and support data-driven network optimization through the closed-loop control mechanism.
TTIN has been officially launched recently. TTIN platform and registration entry are available on the webpage below:
Research institutes and vendors around the world are welcomed to verify and test diverse innovative solutions and methodologies on the TTIN for promoting the development of B5G/6G intelligent communication networks.
