Self-Healing 6G Networks-in-Network for Resilient Wireless Communication
Future 6G networks must manage increasingly dynamic radio environments in which multiple autonomous sub-networks (SNs) share frequency resources and adapt to changing operating conditions. In such scenarios, interference from faulty devices or intentional jamming can disrupt ongoing communications, making rapid and autonomous network adaptation essential. This demonstration presents a self-healing networks-in-network (NiN) architecture that closely integrates the detection of spectrum anomalies with dynamic spectrum management. A spectrum scanner continuously monitors the frequency spectrum and forwards detected anomalies to the DSM, which automatically identifies suitable frequency resources and reconfigures the affected SN. During the live demonstration, participants can initiate controlled disruptions and observe the entire adaptation process in real time, from anomaly detection to autonomous frequency reallocation and network recovery. The demonstrator illustrates how integrating spectrum monitoring and resource management into a single control loop can improve the resilience of future NiN implementations and demonstrates a practical approach to autonomous, spectrum-aware networking.
