C-DOT, the premier telecommunications research and development center of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Government of India, and the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT-R) have partnered to develop the ‘6G and Beyond’ initiative.
The agreement was signed under the Telecommunications Technology Development Fund (TTDF) scheme of the Ministry of Telecommunications, Government of India. The fund was designed to provide financial support to domestic companies and institutions involved in the technical design, development, and commercialization of telecommunications products and solutions. Enabling affordable broadband and mobile services in rural and remote areas.
Compact 6G chip innovation
“The purpose of this contract is to develop a fully integrated 140 GHz transceiver module that will enable 6G and beyond applications.The novelty of this system is that the terahertz wave generation, transmission, and antenna are on a single chip. The system’s size, weight, and power consumption make it suitable for use in portable devices such as smartphones, laptops, and wearables. . The chip supports data rates of up to several gigabits per second, enabling high-speed data transfer between chips or chips. Chips.”
The event was attended by C-DOT CEO Dr. Rajkumar Upadhyay. Prof. Sai Ramudu Meka (Vice Dean (Corporate Exchange)) and Prof. Darshak Bhatt (Assistant Professor, IIT Roorkee). C-DOT Director Dr. Pankaj Kumar Darela and Ms. Shikha Srivastava were also present at the agreement signing ceremony.
Representatives from IIT Roorkee said that they are fully committed to contributing to the development of next generation communication technologies in line with the Prime Minister’s vision of Viksit Bharat@2047 and also look forward to research collaboration to strengthen the aim of promoting disconnection. He expressed his gratitude to C-DOT for giving him the opportunity. – Cutting-edge research capabilities and infrastructure in the telecommunications field.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO of C-DOT, said: “Developed on a single chip, this technology leads to significant reductions in system size, weight and power consumption, thus making it suitable for use in 6G devices.” This will pave the way for building manufactured 6G solutions/applications. ” Dr. Upadhyay emphasized the important role of indigenously designed and developed 6G technology in achieving the overarching goals of ‘Bharat 6G Mission’.
C-DOT and IIT-Roorkee said the successful completion of this project will contribute to the development of next-generation ultra-high-speed, low-latency 6G networks and further contribute to the fundamental transformation of various industrial sectors. He reiterated that he would make a contribution.
