| contents | This paper examines architectural challenges and opportunities arising from Nomadic Networks in the context of emerging 6G research. Nomadic networks are proposed as a solution to the limitations of stationary communication networks, providing enhanced connectivity for dynamic and mobile environments, such as large outdoor events, emergency situations and mobile industrial applications. The key requirements for nomadic networks are outlined, including functional split within the Radio Access Network and robust backhauling solutions. It also addresses the complexity of managing network components, ensuring interoperability with existing systems and maintaining stakeholder trust. A comprehensive architectural framework for Nomadic Networks in 6G is proposed. Different deployment scenarios for Nomadic Networks are investigated, including spawned, steered, and wandering Radio Access Networks as well as integrated, migrated and donated Core Networks. By introducing Nomadic-Network-as-a-Service and a related orchestration framework, the potential for flexible and scalable network management is emphasized. By addressing the architectural challenges, the paper provides a path for the successful implementation of Nomadic Networks towards more adaptable and flexible 6G networks that can meet the evolving needs of multiple sectors. |
