Greetings from Cape Town! We are thrilled to be part of the IEEE GLOBECOM 2024 conference!
The Wireless Communications & Networks team from Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI led by Prof. Slawomir Stanczak and our colleagues from Technische Universität Dresden together headed by Prof. Frank Fitzek presented the research Projects 6G-RIC Research and Innovation Cluster and 6G-life.
Our accompanying startup incubators xGIncubator and launchhub42, together with airpuls GmbH and CampusGenius, showcased their Open RAN solutions for 6G Research and Development at our joint booth no. 17.
We showcased our innovative remote live demonstration on semantic-aware neuromorphic device-edge co-inference for human-robot interaction. The demonstration integrates wireless communications with neuromorphic sensing and processing—mimicking the human brain. 🧠🤖 We also showcased several hardware demonstrators, including a fixed-beam IRS for FR3 and a D-Band front end for integrated communication and sensing.
Moreover, we presented our latest advances in research, with a variety of presentations covering different research areas:
💡 “Measurement and Modelling of sub-THz Channels in the Presence of Emulated RIS” presented by Mathis Schmieder
💡 A panel, „Consolidating Technological Capabilities and Industry Expectations: A Perspective on Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces,“ organized by 6G-RIC Research and Innovation Cluster experts Prof. Robert Schober (FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg) and Dr. Ehsan Tohidi (Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI) brought together leaders from academia and industry:
Dr. Yifei Yuan (China Mobile Research Institute), Mr. Takehiro Nakamura (NTT DOCOMO), Dr. Taro Eichler (Rohde & Schwarz) & Prof. Marco Di Renzo (CNRS, CentraleSupelec, Paris-Saclay University).
💡 “Localization in Dynamic Indoor MIMO-OFDM Wireless Systems Using Domain Adaptation” presented by Rafail Ismayilov
💡 “Joint power control, beamforming, and sleep-mode selection for energy-efficient cell-free networks using surrogate machine learning models” presented by Dr. Lorenzo Miretti
💡 “Beampattern Synthesis with a Computationally Efficient Matrix Nearness Approach” presented by Berkan Kılıç
💡 “Linear Phase Beampattern Design with Set-theoretic Methods” presented by Prof. Slawomir Stanczak
💡 “Analysis of interaction Mechanisms of Intercomparison and Raytracing Tools for Optimizing THz-Simulations” also presented by Prof. Slawomir Stanczak
