Samsung announced that it has partnered with Princeton University in the United States to develop 6G wireless communications and networking technology. Samsung Research America, the U.S. division of Samsung’s research and development division, has become a founding member of his NextG Initiative Corporate Affiliates Program at the university.
Samsung will help commercialize 6G networks
Last year, the School of Applied Sciences and Princeton University Engineering established the NextG initiative to accelerate the adoption of new technologies in the areas of cloud and edge networks, intelligent sensing, and resilient networks. We then established a corporate affiliate program to foster better relationships between academia, business, and industry leaders. Samsung joined this program to bridge the gap between academic research and real-world applications and shape the future of 6G. Ericsson, Intel, MediaTek, Nokia Bell Labs, Qualcomm Technologies and Vodafone are also participating in the corporate program.
In July 2020, Samsung’s Advanced Communications Research Center (ACRC) released its first 6G whitepaper. In May 2022, the company released his 6G spectrum white paper, establishing itself as part of the leading companies driving the 6G environment. Samsung, whose employees chair the 6G Framework Group of the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) and the Spectrum Group of the Global Mobile Suppliers Association (GSA), is committed to leading the commercialization of 6G technology. become.
“Princeton University’s College of Engineering and Applied Sciences is proud to be a leader in the field,” said Andrea Goldsmith, dean of Princeton’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.The best academic research that helps realize the potential of future wireless networks comes from close interaction between faculty and industry technology leaders. Our NextG program aims to foster the close collaboration on wireless technologies and policies necessary to drive meaningful innovation and global leadership in a time of rapid change.”
