The 12th FUSECO Forum, held on November 7-8 by our partner Fraunhofer FOKUS, provided a platform for key discussions on the future of 5G and 6G technologies. Representing 6G-SANDBOX, which was one of the partners of the event, Project Coordinator Michael Dieudonne of Keysight Technologies presented an update on experimentation outcomes, while David Artuñedo from Telefónica shared insights on technology validation and non-terrestrial network measurement campaigns. A dedicated demo booth with a new 6G-SANDBOX poster encouraged new experimenters to engage. This influential forum spotlighted the latest advancements, offering networking and collaboration opportunities.

On October 28th, a delegation from the State Secretariat for Telecommunications and Digital Infrastructures visited the “José María Troya Linero” Institute of Software Technology and Engineering at the University of Malaga. The aim of the visit was to show the research infrastructure Victoria Network and the 5G+Tactile and 6G-SANDBOX projects. Our project coordinator Michael Dieudonne guided them through the new Keysight room in the Ada Byron building, and they also visited the Keysight facilities at the University of Málaga, gaining a close-up view of the research advancements.

On the 30th-31st of October , the 𝟱𝘁𝗵 𝟲𝗚-𝗦𝗔𝗡𝗗𝗕𝗢𝗫 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 took place at the Universidad de Málaga in Málaga, Spain.
We extend our thanks to all partners for their insightful presentations and contributions to the discussions, which have been instrumental in progressing the project.

On the 15th-17th of October 2024, the IEEE Future Networks World Forum was held in Dubai. in this context. Isaam Maaz from Keysight, presented during Symposium on 6G Communications their research portfolio, focusing, among others, on 6G-SANDBOX testbeds, Digital twins and experimentation opportunities.
‘6G networks are expected to capitalize on high-performance computing, quantum computing, AI/ML, etc. Resource management will be crucial within 6G, and the network complexity will pose a challenge due to the very diverse applications and services, such as ultra-low latency, the growing demand for high positioning accuracy, dense heterogeneous architectures, machine-to-machine communication, the embodiment of sensing in communication systems, and contactless exchange of data, etc.’
