KEYSIGHT AND ANALOG DEVICES COLLABORATE TO ADVANCE 6G TECHNOLOGY

Keysight Technologies, Inc. has announced it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), a global semiconductor leader that bridges the physical and digital worlds to enable breakthroughs at the Intelligent Edge, to advance 6G technology design and development.

Under the MoU, the companies will collaborate to develop innovative solutions in technology areas critical to multiple facets of wireless network performance including energy efficiency as well as resilient and secure wireless connectivity.

The two companies will build on existing collaborations in 5G, open radio access network (RAN), and phased array technology to accelerate technological breakthroughs required to deliver solutions and services with the potential to transform lives while offering huge opportunities for business, industry, and consumers. Future use cases will leverage new waveforms and spectrum technologies, a new 6G air-interface, higher order antenna systems, and sensing. Advancements in virtualization, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) will drive the continued digital transformation, which underpins the 6G vision.

Keysight and ADI will demonstrate open radio access network (RAN) and massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) antenna design prototypes and measurement platforms at the GSMA Mobile World Congress 2023 held in Barcelona, Spain.
