NextG2Com associated researchers have constructed a new distributed multi-antenna testbed and, for the first time, demonstrated that a wireless network with digitally steered radio signals and 256 antennas is feasible.

Researchers at Lund University have developed a testbed capable of meeting the research requirements needed to advance future wireless networks and 6G technologies.

“We have demonstrated that the technology works with 256 antennas distributed across different locations, with data coherently processed in real time,” says Dumitra Iancu, PhD student in Integrated Electronic Systems.
