A new dimension
With 6G, we are taking mobile communications into a new dimension. While 4G was dedicated to the exchange of information between people, and 5G advanced the communication between machines, the upcoming generation aims to interconnect humans and machines in such a way that the merging of the physical and virtual worlds is completed.
Thus, 6G mobile communications opens the door to entirely new applications and business models: from digital twins and augmented and extended reality to collaborative robots. For this purpose, real actions must be mirrored into virtual spheres without delay. Therefore, 6G relies on speeds of several hundred Gbit/s, even lower latency, universal availability, and higher energy efficiency.
In short: 6G is changing the technological rules of the game. Therefore, we have identified several key themes in which we pioneer. This way, we can keep the window of time between basic research and the development of market-ready products as small as possible.
