Technical Radar

The Technical Key Performance Indicators (KPI) Radar offers a comprehensive overview of the target values for six key 6G KPIs, as defined by the SNS JU Research and Innovation projects. Since these target values can vary significantly depending on the specific Use Case (UC) addressed by each project, the KPI Radar highlights the minimum and maximum values pursued within SNS JU, along with their associated use cases. These are based on the latest findings from the Test, Measurement and Validation (TMV) Working Group of the SNS JU [1].

The Technical KPI Radar is regularly updated to incorporate results from ongoing SNS JU R&I projects, reflecting both the evolving targets and actual KPI values achieved through experimentation activities such as trials and pilots.
