Samsung Electronics and Princeton University have collaborated on the future of 6G innovations. The former Research America subsidiary agreed to join forces with the said New Jersey-based Ivy League research university to lead 6G research and development (R&D).
Main Goal of the Agreement
Samsung Research America and Princeton grabbed the opportunity to collaborate to help speed up the adoption of technologies and innovation in various categories, including edge networks, network resilience, cloud, and intelligent sensing. Samsung Electronics announced on Tuesday, Feb. 13, that its R&D group, Samsung Research America (SRA), has signed a deal with Princeton for the joint development of next-generation 6G network innovations, as per Yonhap News Agency.
Under the deal, SRA would be added as a founding member of the prestigious university's "NextG Initiative Corporate Affiliates Program," launched by the school's Engineering and Applied Science department last year. They set up the program to improve various technologies while accelerating their adoption.
Collaboration in Research for Technology
Samsung Research America said it will work closely with Princeton University to foster cooperation between academic research and real-world applications. It will also conduct research alongside other partner companies such as Nokia Bell Labs, Vodafone, MediaTek, Intel, Ericsson, and Qualcomm Technologies.
"The wireless industry has benefited significantly from fundamental research in the past few decades," Samsung Research America's senior vice president, Dr. Charlie Zhang, said in a press release. "We encourage Princeton's researchers to continue innovation and develop disruptive technologies that could bring major breakthroughs in 6G."
Princeton's Dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science, Andrea Goldsmith, added, "The best academic research to help realize the promise of future wireless networks is informed by close interactions between faculty and industry technology leaders. Our NextG program aims to foster those deep collaborations around wireless technology, as well as policy, that are required to drive meaningful innovation and global leadership in an era of rapid change."
