"Expanding on a long history of collaboration between KDDI and Nokia Bell Labs, the Japanese operator and the renowned communications research hub have entered a joint research agreement to explore new approaches for making 6G networks more energy efficient and resilient. The research agreement is designed to help both organisations shape the direction of 6G research and bring practical innovations closer to real-world deployment. By combining KDDI's real network data and operational insights with Nokia Bell Labs' advanced energy consumption models and features and expertise in programmable network architectures, the companies believe they can jointly explore new approaches to energy efficiency and distributed core network design."
"Principally, the research is being conducted in two key areas of 6G: mobile multiple input, multiple output (mMIMO) energy efficiency and distributed programmable core network services for 6G. Within the former domain, the companies will be investigating techniques for reducing base station energy consumption while enhancing communication, specifically targeted at the proposed 6G spectrum. Looking at distributed programmable 6G core services, they are working on finding new mobile technologies that will ensure continuous communication during infrastructure failures and natural disasters."
"Commenting on the partnership and its aims, Nokia Bell Labs core research president Peter Vetter said: "Tackling the inherent challenges in a new generation of networking requires close collaboration in the industry. Working side by side, KDDI Research and Nokia Bell Labs can advance the state of the art in networking thanks to different perspectives on the problems and possible solutions. Ultimately, the joint outcomes will make 6G a more resilient, efficient and intelligent technology.""
