C-DOT, a major R&D center of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) and Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT-R) sign an agreement to develop a 140GHz fully integrated transmitter and receiver module Did. It will facilitate the deployment of his 6G services and other new-age communication services in the country.
The agreement is supported by the Telecommunications Technology Development Fund (TTDF) scheme of the Ministry of Telecommunications and is in line with the government’s policy to develop its own 6G ecosystem.
TTEF provides financial support to national companies and institutions involved in the design, development, and commercialization of telecommunications products and solutions to make broadband and mobile services affordable and available in rural and remote areas. Masu.
“The purpose of this contract is to develop a fully integrated transmitter and receiver module at 140 GHz that will enable applications in 6G and beyond.The novelty of this system is the ability to generate, transmit and The antenna is integrated on a single chip.It has superior system size, weight, and power consumption, making it suitable for use in portable devices such as smartphones, laptops, and wearables.This chip supports up to multi-gigabit /second data rate, enabling high-speed chip-to-chip or chip-to-chip data transfer,” the DoT release said.
Representatives of IIT Roorkee said that they are fully committed to developing next-generation communication technologies in line with the Prime Minister’s vision of Viksit Bharat@2047 and will also foster the development of cutting-edge research capabilities and infrastructure. He expressed his gratitude to C-DOT for the collaborative research. Communication department.
“This technology, developed on a single chip, is suitable for use in 6G devices as it leads to significant reductions in system size, weight and power consumption. It will pave the way for building applications,” said Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO, C-DOT, highlighting the critical role of indigenously designed and developed 6G technology in realizing the overarching goal. did. Objective of “Bharat 6G Mission”.
C-DOT and IIT-Roorkee expect this project to significantly contribute to the development of next-generation ultra-high speed, low-latency 6G networks and further contribute to the new industrial revolution.
Telecommunications scientists and engineers around the world are working to develop technologies for use in sixth generation (6G) networks. In fact, scientists at Tokyo Tech have reported a new transceiver design capable of both transmitting and receiving at frequencies above 100 GHz and data rates of 112 Gb/s.
By effectively using a frequency dispersion architecture that suppresses self-interference caused by transmitted signals leaking into the receiver, transceivers achieve unprecedented speeds exceeding 100 gigabits per second (Gb/s) while maintaining ultra-small size. Achieve zero data rates.
The full-duplex 6G architecture, operating at sub-THz frequencies between 88 and 136 GHz, supports extremely low latency for applications such as self-driving cars and virtual reality.
