Keysight to Collaborate with DOCOMO and NTT to Advance 6G Wireless Communications

Keysight Technologies Inc, has signed a three-party agreement with NTT DOCOMO, Inc, and NTT to advance the development of key technologies expected to drive the innovation necessary for 6G.

With 5G deployment under way, research on enabling technologies for 6G – the next generation of wireless communications – is gaining momentum. These technologies involve new spectrum, artificial intelligence, digital twins, and new network architectures including non-terrestrial networks. Organizations developing semiconductors, next-generation device technology, new network capabilities, and 6G applications are working with academia, government, and each other to meet the challenges and demands of bringing these future communications technologies to market.

Under the agreement, Keysight, NTT DOCOMO, and NTT will combine their expertise and solutions to enable the industry to overcome technical challenges associated with the introduction of 6G use cases and applications. The first technical collaboration will focus on new spectrum technologies for sub-terahertz (sub-THz) frequencies.

The promise of the extreme data rates of sub-THz bandwidths combined with applications enabled by sensing technologies is driving significant research in semiconductors, antennas, transceiver design, and modulation techniques. The companies have agreed on a multi-year project that will focus on radio frequency (RF) channel measurement and modeling for frequencies ranging from 92 GHz to 300 GHz.
