InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile and video technology
research and development company, today announced that it will be
joining the University of Texas at Austin’s 6G Research Center
(6G@UT) as a founding member.
Focusing on next generation wireless technologies with
significant impact on the 6G roadmap, the 6G@UT research endeavors
will explore ubiquitous sensing and machine learning and their
critical role in 6G devices and future network management. The
research center, developed from the UT Cockrell School’s Wireless
Networking and Communications Group, takes shape as research and
academic institutions across United States begin to drive
engagement in wireless innovation and dedicate pilots and funding
to support emerging 6G wireless research.
As a founding member, InterDigital joins companies like
AT&T, Samsung, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm as wireless industry
contributors to the 6G@UT research center. Each founding member
will sponsor two projects over three years and work alongside UT
faculty and students to develop core networking innovations that
comprise the backbone of 6G, like AI and machine learning
algorithms, advanced sensing technologies, and more.
"Collaboration is key to shaping the roadmap for 6G and
InterDigital is excited to be working alongside the University of
Texas and our industry peers to establish 6G@UT," said Henry Tirri,
CTO, InterDigital. "6G will fundamentally shift the value of the
network from connectivity and low latency to new physical
experiences which will drive the need for advanced machine learning
technologies.
InterDigital is also a founding member of the ATIS Next G
Alliance, a standards-driven group committed to ensuring that the
U.S. is prepared for the next generation of wireless.
