U.S. company InterDigital has signed an agreement the University Carlos III of Madrid (UC3M), in Spain to expand their bilateral partnership in research to enable future 5G-Advanced (5G-A) and 6G technologies.
Specifically, InterDigital will sponsor experimental research and innovation at UC3M that explores and advances integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) in next-generation cellular systems, 5G-Advanced and 6G. The U.S. company noted that this research will help unlock “multi-dimensional sensing information” about connected devices and unconnected objects, as well as their movements and surroundings, to support new use cases and services.
The InterDigital and UC3M partnership also reflects an important research collaboration at a time when 6G research and standardization has emerged as a priority across the European Union, United States and other regions worldwide.
