The University of Sheffield said it is set to open what it claims to be the first national 6G research facility in the U.K.
In a release, the University of Sheffield said that the new UKRI National 6G Radio Systems Facility will give the U.K. world-class research and development (R&D) capabilities in the 6G space.
Funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the facility will play a key role in driving innovation in as-yet-unstandardized 6G systems by bringing together academics and industrial partners and giving them the specialist equipment needed to collaborate and develop globally leading 6G solutions, according to the university.
