Objectives

Realising open networking and universal connectivity with assured capacities

We aim to design a novel 3D open network architecture to deliver seamless, reliable and secure full geographic coverage, from remote rural through to dense urban, indoor and outdoor environments.

Maximise spectrum openness and RAN efficiency in 3D network environments

Focusing on the delivery of capacity-assured 6G wireless network connectivity anytime and anywhere through ubiquitous and cost-efficient integration of terrestrial and non-terrestrial network capabilities.

Increase automation and agility in complex multi-tenant and multi-provider 6G ecosystems

Tackling the research challenges associated with high-degree automation of network operations involving the management and orchestration of network resources and functions provided by different stakeholders in the 6G ecosystem.

Enable 6G-era services and deliver a step change in future network capabilities

We typically focus on representative emerging applications such as integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), and also semantic communications that is regarded as a game-changing breakthrough beyond the Shannon paradigm.

Validate and test against emerging use cases in large-scale, real-life testing environments

This is typically through the extension and integration of sophisticated testing facilities offered by the project partners in order to systematically and rigorously test the service and network performances achieved by the TUDOR solution.
