Title:
Agile 6G performance evaluation through the close interaction of simulation, laboratory and real-life environments
Abstract:
In the talk, Fabian Kurtz as will report on on-going research within the 6GEM research hub on adaptive and reliable wireless communications. To aim for a utility-oriented 6G development, within 6GEM, new 6G-related technology concepts are deployed in an early stage in test fields jointly with verticals, such as such as production & intralogistics, automotive and rescue robotics. To prepare for the validation in the test fields, reproducible laboratory and transfer environments are leveraged to enable effective experiments. This experimental research process is matched by virtualized environments, such as simulation models for scalability analysis as well as digital twins for real-time control of the 6G systems. The talk will present various research concepts, for example the data-driven wireless channel prediction method DraGoN used to enable safe teleoperation and the use of the custom-designed intelligent reflective surfaces HELIOS for seamless mmWave deployments.
Bio:
Fabian Kurtz studied electrical engineering and information technology at TU Dortmund University, completing his doctorate in 2020.
At the university’s Communication Networks Institute (CNI), headed by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christian Wietfeld, he is active as senior researcher.
His current research interests include the design, analysis and performance evaluation of open software-based ICT for mission critical infrastructures and applications.
He is involved in the BMBF-funded 6GEM research hub, which focuses on future adaptive and reliable 6G systems.
