Karlsruhe Institute of Technology

KIT is “The Research University in the Helmholtz Association”. As one of Europe’s largest scientific institutions, Germany’s only University of Excellence with national large-scale research combines a long university tradition with program-oriented cutting-edge research. The university world, whose roots date back to 1825, stands for the breadth of disciplines and knowledge, while the Helmholtz world traditionally focuses on the major and pressing issues of society, science, and economy. More than 5,000 scientists at KIT collaborate on a broad disciplinary basis in natural sciences, engineering, economics, humanities, and social sciences.

In the Open 6G Hub, KIT will focus on the following topics: Photonics & THz Technology, HW/SW Co-Design, System Design, Signal Processing and Architectures, Network Connectivity, 6G-RAN, 26 GHz MIMO Testbed, Joint Communication and Sensing (JCAS), Semantic Communications & Flexible Coding, Privacy, IT- and Network Security, Programmable Infrastructures, Energy Harvesting, and Exposure.
