Hsinchu, November 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with 6G-SANDBOX, a pan-European testbed for 6G experiments funded by the Smart Networks and Service Joint Undertaining under Horizon Europe. concluded.This partnership will build a 6G-SANDBOX testbed. Taiwan’s communication ecosystem.
Attending the event will be (from left) Jeffrey Cheng, General Manager of Keysight’s Greater China Wireless and Network Solutions Engineering; Selena Hsu, Vice President of Auray Technology, Director of ITRI Information and Communication Research Institute, Dong Yang Hsu. Dr. Pang-An Ting, Director of ITRI Information and Communication Research Institute; Michael Dieudonne, 6G-SANDBOX Coordinator. Professor Pedro Merino Gómez of the University of Malaga. and special consultant Morten Moller.
ITRI and 6G-SANDBOX will delve into the 6G research space, focusing on areas such as Joint Communications and Sensing (JCAS) and Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS). ITRI will facilitate his 6G-SANDBOX’s access to critical components such as 5G core, 5G O-RAN base stations, SMO/RIC management platform, JCAS framework, and advanced network planning and emulation tools. ITRI will act as an important catalyst within Taiwan’s ecosystem and actively engage companies in the MoU. To commemorate the start of this collaboration, ITRI representatives visited his 6G-SANDBOX testbed in Malaga on December 12, 2018. November 8th.
Mr. Pang-An Ting, Director of ITRI Information and Communication Research Institute, spoke about ITRI’s recent advances in the ICT field. “During our visit, gothenburg For this year’s EuCNC & 6G Summit, ITRI worked closely with leading figures in 6G academia and industry. We sought strong R&D partnerships with our European counterparts. We are also pleased to announce that ITRI has joined the ranks of his esteemed 6G-IA. By seamlessly integrating technology, applications, and experimental networks, Taiwan With our introduction to the 6G-SANDBOX testbed, we are paving the way for collaborative experimentation for people. Europe Taiwanese companies and research institutes are focusing on both 5G and 6G technologies. Auray Technology has expressed strong interest in contributing his OTIC expertise, including RAN intelligent controllers and security testing. Looking to the future, we plan to expand our invitations to universities and additional Taiwanese companies while coordinating our common efforts to innovate 5G networks and define 6G standards. ”
6G-SANDBOX coordinator Michael Dieudonne “Through the robust interconnection between the 6G-SANDBOX testbed and the ITRI experimental network, we aim to build a comprehensive research platform for 6G applications. “We will further strengthen our ability to collaborate and jointly perform experiments and advance wireless communications.”
Release year January 2023, the 6G-SANDBOX project is led by Keysight Technologies and includes respected partners such as COSMOTE, Eurescom, FOGUS Innovations & Services PC, Fraunhofer FOKUS, ICTFICIAL OY, INFOLYIS PC and the Institute of Software Engineering and Technology of the University of Malaga (ITIS). I am. , Lenovo, IS-Wireless (ISRD), National Center for Scientific Research “Democritus” (NCSRD), Nokia eXtended Reality Lab, OpenNebula Sytems SL, OWO, Queen’s University Belfast, Telefonica, and University of Oulu. The aim of this project is to develop a large-scale EU-wide experimental platform for 6G technology. The platform allows businesses and research institutes to test and test new technologies, including promising technical 6G enablers such as network automation, cybersecurity, digital twins, artificial intelligence (AI), and technologies that optimize energy consumption. It can be verified. 6G-SANDBOX provides a fully configurable, manageable, and controlled end-to-end network of digital and physical nodes, enabling validation of new technologies and research advances in 6G.
