Research on 6G Technology: University of Bremen at Hannover Messe

A functioning communication network in the event of a disaster, an uninterrupted connection to sensors, for example in agriculture and for environmental monitoring, as well as a stable connection for autonomous driving – the sixth generation of mobile communications, 6G, will provide all of this from 2030 onwards using drones, aircraft, and satellites.

At the Open6Ghub stand, a Federal Ministry of Education and Research project, the Communications Engineering research group and the Gauss-Olbers Space Technology Transfer Center from the University of Bremen will be exhibiting their research and development activities on the topic of drones and satellites for 6G.

In addition to 6G-technology software and hardware concepts for connection to future small satellites, an uninterrupted handover of a smartphone connection from a terrestrial base station to a flying base station (drone) will be demonstrated as an application example.

6G should be available by 2030 – in the form of a data infrastructure with a level of reliability comparable to our electricity or water supply. The new network will reportedly be 100 times faster than 5G, use drones, aircraft, and satellites to cover rural and maritime areas and make Germany and Europe more technologically independent. Professor Armin Dekorsy: “We are currently laying the foundations for this.”
