The EU and the US will step up collaboration on the development of 6G wireless communication systems, as Europe seeks to avoid the security risks that the use of Chinese 5G equipment has posed to its 5G networks. The 6G-XCEL (6G Trans-Continental Edge Learning) project, aiming to embed artificial intelligence to enhance the capabilities of 6G networks, is one of 27 6G research projects announced last week, which have a total of €130 million in EU funding.

SFI's Connect centre is leading €600,000 worth of Open RAN projects in the hopes of reducing entry barriers to the telecoms sector.

Researchers in Ireland, Northern Ireland and the US aim to link quantum computers together over a quantum internet to boost their power.

Researchers from Trinity and CONNECT, the SFI Research Centre for Future Networks, have been awarded a 5G test licence to allow advanced experimentation on the next generation of communication networks. This is the first 5G test licence given by ComReg in the new 5G band (3.8-4.2GHz) and will enable crucial research on delivering faster internet speeds and more reliable mobile phone coverage, and on delivering new applications such as remote medical surgery.

The 5G test licence will help research into internet speeds, reliable mobile phone coverage and applications such as remote medical surgery.
