Samsung Research America (SRA), Samsung Electronics’ primary research and development organization, has partnered with Princeton University to shape the future of 6G wireless and networking systems.
SRA is a founding member of Princeton University’s NextG Initiative Corporate Affiliates Program, leading 6G research and development.
In 2023, Princeton University’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences established the NextG initiative to accelerate the adoption of new technologies and increase the flow of innovation across a variety of topics, including cloud and edge networks, intelligent sensing, and network resiliency. . Recently, the NextG Initiative launched an enterprise engagement program to champion these technological advances and foster collaboration between academia, industry leaders, and policy makers.
“The best academic research that helps realize the potential of future wireless networks comes from close interactions between faculty and industry technology leaders,” said Andrea Goldsmith, dean of Princeton’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. says. “Our NextG program is designed to foster closer collaboration on wireless technologies and policies necessary to drive meaningful innovation and global leadership in a time of rapid change. ”
Samsung Research America, along with associated companies including Ericsson, Intel, MediaTek, Nokia Bell Labs, Qualcomm Technologies, and Vodafone, will work closely with Princeton University to bridge the gap between academic research and real-world applications. We aim to
Dr. Charlie Chan, senior vice president of Samsung Research America, expressed support for next-generation telecommunications research. “The wireless industry has benefited greatly from basic research over the past several decades,” he said. “We encourage Princeton researchers to continue innovating and developing disruptive technologies that could lead to major breakthroughs in 6G.”
In May 2019, Samsung established the Advanced Communications Research Center (ACRC) under Samsung Research to lead the development of next-generation communications technology.
With the publication of the 6G White Paper in July 2020 and the 6G Spectrum White Paper in May 2022, ACRC has established itself as a market leader in advancing the 6G environment. Samsung Research chairs both his 6G Framework Group of the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) and the Spectrum Group of the Global Mobile Suppliers Association (GSA), and is important in the global standardization of 6G technology. It plays a role.
To further demonstrate its leadership in 6G communications research and development, Samsung hosted the first Samsung 6G Forum in May 2022. The collaboration between Samsung’s industry leaders and Princeton University’s academic power sets the stage for the NextG initiative to become a monumental force in shaping the future of the future. 6G.
