Description:

6G Connection Strategy with Blockchain

Wireless Wire-Area Network (a.k.a. WWAN) has fulfilled our expectation of ubiquitous network access. As technology advances from GSM to NR, not only the access media moved from monogenous to heterogeneous, but the flexibility of the network also allows extensive coverage. As the basic bandwidth requirement has been pushed due to the underlying application, efficiency on infrastructure's usage and resources distribution has gained unprecedented importance. However, until now, most of the WWAN consumer premises equipment (CPE) still relies on simple decision of connection strategy - the stronger signal is, the better connection quality will be. Though, it might be true in rural areas, it may not be useful in crowded downtown as the tower thats closest to you might be the most packed. As 6G provides its variety of access media from small low power indoor Femto-Cells to the off-ground satellite connection, connection strategy should no longer limited to the strength of the signals, but the overall connection quality. Blockchain provides a decentralized database as a reference for telecom operators to define connection strategy and provide the experience sharing of connection quality reported from each device. This creates a flexible connection strategy for both end-users and telecom operators. Telecom operators can release its latest connection strategy on to the Blockchain, so that the CPE's follows and connect to the service endpoint in the optimized way.

Expected aims:The goal is to develop a blockchain application for practical problems. The output is a PoC system or a demo.

Prerequisites:  Background in C or JavaScript Programming. We have a self-developed platform called ChainEdu, which the student can work on.

Restrictions: If possible, groups of two students should work on the project

Supervisor(s) Weizhi Meng (main supervisor) and Wei-Yang Chiu
