contents Networked control systems (NCSs), which are feedback control loops closed over a communication network, have been a popular research topic over the past decades. Numerous works in the literature propose novel algorithms and protocols with joint consideration of communication and control. However, the vast majority of the recent research results, which have shown remarkable performance improvements if a cross-layer methodology is followed, have not been widely adopted by the industry. In this work, we review the shortcomings of today's mobile networks that render cross-layer solutions, such as semantic and goal-oriented communications, very challenging in practice. To tackle this, we propose a new framework for 6G user plane design that simplifies the adoption of recent research results in networked control, thereby facilitating the joint communication and control design in next-generation mobile networks.
