On Monday, Nvidia presented a software platform driven by AI that enables the simulation of cloud-based communications settings, hence facilitating research into 6G technologies.
Nvidia introduces AI-powered playground for building the future of 6G
The commercial release of 6G, the next generation of communications technology that will replace 5G, is anticipated to occur in 2030.
Radio access network (RAN) hardware, including as base stations and antennas, is one area where software and artificial intelligence (AI) are being used more and more in the telecom industry.
An app that replicates settings like a single cell tower or a whole city will be available on Nvidia’s platform, enabling organizations and scholars to test 6G networks in real time.
Ansys, Nokia, Samsung, SoftBank Corp., and Northeastern University in Boston are a few of the early users of the platform, according to Nvidia.
“The massive increase in connected devices and host of new applications in 6G will require a vast leap in wireless spectral efficiency in radio communications,” said Ronnie Vasishta, senior vice president of telecom at Nvidia.
As investors got ready for Nvidia’s worldwide conference on artificial intelligence for developers in San Jose, California, technology shares increased on Monday.
However, a decline in the telecom industry caused European equities to slightly decline. The maker of gear, Ericsson, shut down 5.4%, while rival Nokia dropped 4%.
According to an expert, telecom equipment suppliers need to collaborate with chip manufacturers and cloud providers in order to remain competitive in the mobile infrastructure industry.
