This $599,995 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems under the CFDA program "Computer and Information Science and Engineering". The award aims to advance the technology for identifying and assessing the impact of non-3GPP standardized elements on the performance and security of cellular networks. Key products and services to be delivered include: New techniques for identifying non-3GPP standardized elements, such as the SpecInsight tool for analyzing 3GPP technical specifications and the DocIntrpr tool for extracting policies, operations, and requirements from non-3GPP documents using natural language processing. Methods for uncovering hidden non-3GPP standardized elements, including the SpecVerifier tool that formally analyzes 3GPP specifications to identify missing designs caused by non-3GPP elements. Development of the Open5G-Flex testing platform to efficiently assess the impact of various non-3GPP standardized elements without requiring direct access to cellular infrastructure. The project will contribute to a more robust, resilient, and secure cellular network ecosystem, as well as train students in mobile networks, AI, and natural language processing. No subawards are planned under this award, which is scheduled to run from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026.
