Keysight signs strategic research agreement with Universiti Malaya on its 6G-SANDBOX project
The Horizon Europe-funded 6G-SANDBOX project has gained a second major MoU signature with an Asian organisation to promote global cooperation for 6G research.
“Our partnership with Universiti Malaya not only enhances the research we are conducting for 6G networks, but also strengthens the collaboration between Europe and Asia for the next generation of wireless communications,” said Keysight’s Michael Dieudonné, 6G-SANDBOX coordinator. “Looking ahead, we plan to continue extending invitations to other Asian universities and companies to further build a global 6G network.”
The collaboration with Universiti Malaya will be focused on integrating technologies, applications and experimental networks from the university onto the 6G-SANDBOX testbeds, enabling joint 6G networks research, trials and demonstrations.
Prof. Dimyati, Deputy Vice Chancellor, Research & Innovation, Universiti Malaya says, “Our partnership with 6G-SANDBOX will provide our researchers with a unique opportunity to contribute to the development of 6G networks and it will be exciting to see the innovations that will emerge from this collaboration.”
6G-SANDBOX was launched in January 2023 by Keysight in collaboration with 16 partners to create a pan-European testbed for 6G experimentation. The project will combine digital and physical nodes to deliver fully configurable, manageable and controllable end-to-end networks for validating new technologies and research advancements for 6G. In addition, 6G-SANBOX will enable entities across the European Union (EU) to test promising technical 6G enablers, including network automation, cybersecurity, digital twins, and artificial intelligence (AI), as well as technologies that streamline energy consumption.
