Advanced IoT and Device Technologies
Funds research on near-zero-energy 6G IoT devices, unlicensed-band 6G connectivity, and next-generation connected IoT applications.
Any AI/ML training data a funded project creates has to go into a shared, openly accessible repository that other SNS-funded projects can also draw on, not just get published generically at the project's own discretion. Selected teams are also asked to sign a 'collaboration agreement' committing to work with other SNS Programme projects on topics of shared interest. On top of the standard Impact c…
This topic wants work on one of three areas: technologies enabling near-zero-energy IoT devices for long-term unattended operation (including passive, battery-less non-terrestrial IoT terminals); communication technologies for unlicensed-band 6G IoT operation in settings like industrial or healthcare deployments; or new IoT applications and connected devices that clearly outperform an equivalent 5G implementation.
