European Core Technologies for Next Generation Communication-Computing Hardware

Project description

Developing core technologies for Beyond 5G and 6G adoption

The successful and widespread adoption of Beyond 5G and 6G telecommunication systems is not automatic; it requires the development of novel computing and digital infrastructure technologies that can help support a secure and efficient transition. The EU-funded COREnext project will facilitate this goal by developing the necessary digital parts and computing architecture to allow for efficient and safe Beyond 5G and 6G processing. The project will use virtualisation and radio access network technology, and develop innovative components for improved computing and energy efficiency. From antenna to processing, COREnext will apply trust anchors to satisfy security needs in both analog and digital components. Moreover, it will engage telecommunications and microelectronics providers for improved transparency and efficiency.

Objective

The COREnext project aims to build a computing architecture and digital components for sustainable and trustworthy B5G and 6G processing. This architecture must support an open, multi-vendor and multi-tenant disaggregated RAN by employing virtualization technology. A step forward in digital component design must be made to address the compute throughput and energy-efficiency requirements. This is addressed by the development of powerful and efficient heterogeneous accelerators, purpose-built for RAN computation and signal processing, as well as ultra-high-speed and low-power interconnects to support disaggregation of compute resources. A cornerstone of the project is trustworthiness. The pervasiveness of B5G and 6G use cases requires deeply embedded hardware trust anchors to fulfil the vision of secure disaggregated compute systems. To realize these goals, the project brings together major telecommunications and microelectronics players as well as academic research partners. A strategic roadmap will offer a transparent path towards future exploitation of the generated research results, fostering a continuing European strategy for the emergence of European digital capabilities in this communication-computing domain.
