The Open6GHub will contribute to the development of an overall 6G
architecture, but also end-to-end solutions in the following, but not
limited to, areas: advanced network topologies with highly agile organic
networking, security and resilience, THz and photonic transmission
methods, sensor functionalities in the network and their intelligent
use, as well as processing and application-specific radio protocols.
Research at FAU is conducted at the chairs of Prof. Franchi (ESCS), Prof. Weigel (LTE) and Prof. Vossiek (LHFT). At LTE research is focused on Joint-Communications-and-Sensing-Technologies and their application in resilient 6G campus networks, in close collaboration with ESCS and LHFT. Furthermore LTE designs integrated 140 GHz Device-to-Device communication chips.
The head of the ESCS Chair, Professor Franchi is the FAU project leader of the work package focusing on adaptive RAN technologies. His working group aims to bring together technologies and functions for 6G. radio (air interface) and sensing, JCAS, and to explore new architectures, methods, and protocols for highly reliable real-time industrial radio solutions (6G industrial radio) as well as private and local networks (6G campus networks).Additionally, ESCS is involved in investigations on topics of resilience-by-design and security-by-design.
