Non-profit organization MITRE announced that it will collaborate with NVIDIA to advance AI-native wireless networks, including for 6G. The collaboration will focus on a ground-up redesign of wireless networks and infrastructure, utilizing and enabling AI advancements today and in the future.
“AI-native wireless networks will bring transformative benefits for transportation, healthcare, and more, improving spectrum efficiency and connectivity, enhancing real-time sensing and monitoring, and enabling innovation,” said Mark Peters, president and CEO of MITRE. “Creating 6G to take full advantage of cutting-edge technologies, along with collaboration and partnership with industry, is vital to delivering innovations and efficiencies at a global scale.”
MITRE will serve as NVIDIA’s founding research partner for 6G. As part of the collaboration, MITRE will develop and prototype new AI-driven services and applications for wireless networks. Applications may include dynamic spectrum sharing, gentic network organization and security, and integrated sensing and communications
“Ensuring the United States’ telecom leadership means building a pathway for future technological advancements,” said Charles Clancy, MITRE chief technology officer. “We’re excited to work with NVIDIA to help drive forward the future of wireless networks, as we continue to be a trusted resource for government agencies, telecom organizations, and AI researchers.”
MITRE will tap into its telecommunications expertise and experience across industry and government, including spectrum sharing, wireless security, and advanced network deployment.
This collaboration with NVIDIA is the latest joint effort, including the Federal AI Sandbox and a Center of Excellence for NVIDIA Omniverse, for industry and government to come together to advance global simulation. MITRE and NVIDIA are also investing in modeling, simulation, and runtime computing for advanced autonomous airborne, surface, and water robotics, including the Digital Proving Ground for autonomous vehicles.
Technology company NVIDIA announced last month their adoption of the NVIDIA cybersecurity AI platform to enhance real-time threat detection and safeguard critical infrastructure protection. The technology will enhance the operation of critical infrastructure installations, which function in highly complex environments. The convergence of IT and OT (operational technology), often driven by digital transformation, creates a significant array of vulnerabilities. Traditional cybersecurity measures are inadequate to tackle these evolving threats.
