IntAgent: NWDAF-Based Intent LLM Agent Towards Advanced Next Generation Networks

Intent-based networks (IBNs) are gaining prominence as an innovative technology that automates network operations through high-level request statements, defining what the network should achieve. In this work, we introduce IntAgent, an intelligent intent LLM agent that integrates NWDAF analytics and tools to fulfill the network operator's intents. Unlike previous approaches, we develop an intent tools engine directly within the NWDAF analytics engine, allowing our agent to utilize live network analytics to inform its reasoning and tool selection. We offer an enriched, 3GPP-compliant data source that enhances the dynamic, context-aware fulfillment of network operator goals, along with an MCP tools server for scheduling, monitoring, and analytics tools. We demonstrate the efficacy of our framework through two practical use cases: ML-based traffic prediction and scheduled policy enforcement, which validate IntAgent's ability to autonomously fulfill complex network intents.

The Future of Internet of Things and Multimodal Language Models in 6G Networks: Opportunities and Challenges

Based on recent trends in artificial intelligence and IoT research. The cooperative potential of integrating the Internet of Things (IoT) and Multimodal Language Models (MLLMs) is presented in this survey paper for future 6G systems. It focuses on the applications of this integration in different fields, such as healthcare, agriculture, and smart cities, and investigates the four pillars of IoT integration, such as sensors, communication, processing, and security. The paper provides a comprehensive description of IoT and MLLM technologies and applications, addresses the role of multimodality in each pillar, and concludes with an overview of the most significant challenges and directions for future research. The general survey is a roadmap for researchers interested in tracing the application areas of MLLMs and IoT, highlighting the potential and challenges in this rapidly growing field. The survey recognizes the need to deal with data availability, computational expense, privacy, and real-time processing to harness the complete potential of IoT, MLLM, and 6G technology
