Intelligent 5G Networks Designed and Integrated for Globalized Operations (INDIGO)

AT&T和更大的生态系统面临的社会挑战有很多例子，AT&T一直是其有影响力的成员。例如，普通老式电话服务设定了可靠性和简单性的新标准。随后出现了晶体管、卫星、互联网和无线革命。今天，AT&T在一个新的多学科、多文化、多代人的团队中建立了密切的合作伙伴关系，在一个名为Indigo或为全球化运营设计和集成的智能5G网络项目中面对Track G带来的挑战。鉴于NSF的融合加速器和国防部的联合全域指挥与控制之间的相似之处，Indigo正在采用基本构建块方法，通过跨重点领域的系统系统/网络网络方法，近乎实时地满足军事任务和民用第一响应团队的功能和安全需求。(3)执行。这将新型人工智能规划器与服务管理和协调框架以及RAN智能控制器集成在一起。尽管复杂任务的生命周期中网络类型、可用性、流量和数据存在独特的变化，但我们的Indigo确保及时传输连接每个传感器和每个参与者所需的信息。我们的目标是开发现实世界的解决方案，以便在盟国、敌对和有争议的地区通过5G基础设施安全运行，并为未来的安全无线解决方案开发新的基础设施和合作伙伴关系，以适应新兴的5G/6G标准。后者的重要性从军事应用扩展到民用领域，因为传感器和多RAT(无线电接入技术)在智能城市倡议、万物互联和新兴的虚拟世界中的集成，即完全实现的数字世界，存在于我们今天生活的世界之外。

There are numerous examples of societal challenges faced by AT&T and the larger ecosystem of which AT&T has always been an influential member. For example, plain old telephone service set a new standard for reliability and simplicity.  Then came the transistor, satellites, the Internet, and the wireless revolution. Today, AT&T is building upon its close partnerships within a new multidisciplinary, multicultural, multigenerational team to face challenges posed by Track G within a project dubbed INDIGO or, Intelligent 5G Networks Designed & Integrated for Globalized Operations.   In view of the parallels between NSF’s Convergence Accelerator and DoD’s Joint All Domain Command & Control, INDIGO is adopting a basic-building-blocks approach to meet the functional and security requirements of military missions and civilian first responder teams in near real-time through a system-of-systems/network-of-networks approach across focus areas (1) Planning and Composition, (2) Interoperability, and (3) Execution. This integrates a novel Artificial Intelligence Planner with a Service Management & Orchestration Framework and RAN Intelligent Controllers.    INDIGO ensures the timely transfer of information needed to connect every sensor and every actor despite the unique variations in network type, availability, traffic, and data across the lifecycle of a complex mission. The goal is to develop real-world solutions for securely operating through 5G infrastructures in allied, hostile, and contested areas, and also to develop new infrastructures and partnerships for future secure wireless solutions in pace with emerging 5G/6G standards. The latter’s importance extends beyond military applications into the civilian sphere given the integration of sensors and multi RAT (Radio Access Technologies) in Smart Cities initiatives, Internet of Everything, and the emerging metaverse, i.e., the fully realized digital world that exists beyond the one in which we live today.
