EuCNC & 6G Summit

JUN 2024

3-6

Antwerp, Belgium

Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz-Institut (HHI) is a world leader in the development for mobile and optical communication networks and systems as well as processing and coding of video signals.

Together with international partners from research and industry, Fraunhofer HHI works in the whole spectrum of digital infrastructure – from fundamental research to the development of prototypes and solutions.

At EuCNC & 6G Summit 2024, Fraunhofer HHI presents the latest developments in Wireless Communications and Networks from June 3 to 6 in Antwerp, Belgium. Visit our booths 8 and 10.

5G NR Sidelink

Standard-compliant 5G NR Sidelink research platform

We present a software-defined radio implementation of the 5G NR Sidelink, compliant with the 3GPP Rel. 16 (mode 2) standard. This demo showcases Sidelink transmitting remote control data to a mobile robot (Spot, Boston Dynamics).

Neuromorphic Wireless Cognition for Connected Intelligence

We present a proof-of-concept implementation of neuromorphic wireless cognition with application to human-robot interaction. The setup integrates wireless communications with neuromorphic sensing and neuromorphic processing (mimicking the human brain). The followed approach allows for reduction in communication overhead, implementation complexity and energy consumption, making it amenable for various edge intelligence applications. The work has been conducted within the 6G Research and Innovation Cluster (6G-RIC), funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in the program “Souverän. Digital. Vernetzt.”

D-Band Sub-THz Sensing

At EuCNC 2024, Fraunhofer HHI presents its real-time capable research platform for integrated communication and sensing in the sub-THz frequency range. In the demonstration, mobile radio synchronization signals are transmitted and received at 160 GHz with 4 GHz bandwidth to generate a live radar image of the environment. Exhibition booth visitors may experience localization with centimeter-level accuracy and simple gesture recognition for themselves in this interactive demo.
