Experimenting Over a Federated 6G Network Infrastructure: Adaptive 360○ Video Streaming

6G networks will revolutionize connectivity with unprecedented speeds, ultra-low latency, and reliable communications, enabling advanced applications like Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR and VR), and autonomous systems. To achieve these goals, testbed platforms play a crucial role in this process allowing researchers to execute and validate frameworks, ensuring innovations are both theoretically sound and practically viable. These platforms facilitate the analysis of complex interactions among components and the performance evaluation of new technologies under varying conditions, which is critical for identifying potential issues and optimizing solutions before commercial deployment. This paper presents a Federated 6G Network Infrastructure testbed designed for application execution and validation, exemplified by an Adaptive 360○Video Streaming service. The testbed has been designed to represent a vertical application for SLICES-RI and SUNRISE-6G projects.
