Barcelona, February 29th – 6G-REFERENCE, a 6G hardware enabler for self-free coherent communications and sensing, envisions a future where: urban area is equipped with sustainable solution This allows us to cope with ever-increasing transport demands and population densities, while at the same time internet of sensations.
To this end, a European-funded project will be developed. Integrated circuit and antenna component solutions, including dynamic frequency and spatial antenna filtering to enable efficient spectral coexistence schemes.will also be expanded Practical hardware enabler In terms of complexity, cost, and power consumption, it may end up becoming a future reference design. 6G distributed wireless.
The solution envisioned by 6G reference consisting of Ultra-dense cell-free deployment for collaborative coherent communication and sensing cm-wave balances the benefits of sub-6GHz (e.g., reduced path loss) and millimeter-wave (e.g., wide bandwidth).
These systems face five fundamental problems. assignment: The need for precise synchronization between distributed radio units. Fronthaul data distribution. Integration of sensing functions. Low complexity, cost, and power consumption of wireless and coexistence with other services. These challenges include: methodology This is based on the investigation of radio system operation in the 10-15 GHz range, the development of hardware concepts and demonstration of feasibility in CMOS, and the use of additive manufacturing of antenna arrays and nanotechnology for sensors.
Practical integrated circuits and antenna systems for 6G applications
The 6G-REFERENCE methodology allows the project to: Practical integrated circuit (IC) and antenna systems for 6G applicationsTo deliver innovations in transceiver cm-wave radio frequency (RF) hardware that address the data capacity and scheduling challenges of D-MIMO. Create new solutions for precise synchronization of radio frequency, phase, and time. Delivering new RF and antenna components to expand spatial and frequency domain selection capabilities while reducing complexity, cost, and energy consumption. It provides a low-complexity, low-cost, low-power hardware solution and implements coexistence with existing services in the 10-15 GHz range.
6G-REFERENCE is an innovation and research project that will run for three years until December 2026. European Commission’s Horizon Europe programand parts thereof Smart network and service joint venture (SNS JU). The project is a joint collaboration between 10 research and industry partners from 8 European countries.
