The transition to 6G networks is underway, and Europe plays a crucial role in its development. Below, we answer some of the most common questions about this technological advancement.
What is the MultiX project and what is its objective?
The MultiX project is a European initiative that brings together 17 centers and institutions from 7 countries, including IMDEA Networks in Leganés and the Carlos III University of Madrid. Its objective is to research and develop technologies for future 6G networks, creating intelligent systems capable of perceiving their environment and acting in real time.
What practical applications are expected from 6G networks?
6G networks will enable advancements in various sectors, such as healthcare (for example, fall detection in the elderly), industrial automation, and the coordination of autonomous vehicles. These applications rely on the networks' ability to integrate sensors and communication systems that provide a comprehensive view of the environment.
What is Spain's role in the development of 6G?
Spain, through institutions such as IMDEA Networks and the Carlos III University of Madrid, actively participates in the research and development of 6G technologies, contributing its experience in perception systems based on radio technologies and machine learning.
