Join the frontier of innovation in 6G: the future of mobile network technology! A unique Dutch-driven alliance in collaboration with Ericsson and Chalmers, comprising 60 leading ICT businesses, mobile operators, semiconductor manufacturers, and research institutions, have united to spearhead the development of specific aspects of 6G. Join us as a PhD student in this prestigious Future Network Services (FNS) flagship project, where research and entrepreneurial pursuits converge.
Within this project, the aim is to improve joint communication and sensing by utilizing the digital twin concept. A digital twin of 5G and future 6G networks may be approximated in its simplest form by a radio propagation channel, together with transmit and receive units with their respective physical constraints. A digital twin includes realistic/identical deployment and movement of transceivers as in the real world. Considering mobile units move through an environment, the digital twin can aid with prior knowledge to allow for improved localization and mapping/sensing of/by these units. At the same time, this provides to opportunity to improve the propagation model used in the digital twin by detecting and identifying radio propagation paths/mechanisms that are missing in the simulation results of the digital twin.
