ORIGAMI’s target is to provide comprehensive architectural options for RAN, Transport, and Core functions and their interfaces, to be considered when standardizing 6G architecture in 3GPP.

Deliverable 2.1 centers on a detailed analysis of the eight barriers identified by ORIGAMI, while also incorporating recognized architectural challenges in 6G to overcome such barriers. This document describes the precise requirements that ORIGAMI's innovative architectural solutions must address. Furthermore, it establishes key performance and value indicators to assess the effectiveness of ORIGAMI's solutions in various project use cases. By doing so, the document sets an important landmark towards ensuring that ORIGAMI not only meets its internal objectives but also aligns with the broader goals and constraints posed by interconnected projects. The deliverable will serve as a foundational reference, guiding the development and implementation of ORIGAMI's architecture to guarantee it is robust, adaptable, and capable of delivering measurable improvements. Through this approach, Deliverable 2.1 forms the architectural blueprint for further project deliverables and lays the groundwork for successful project outcomes and strategic advancements. Overall, the structured approach adopted in the document facilitates the positioning of ORIGAMI’s architectural solutions towards significant contributions to the evolution of 6G standards.
