The 6G-REFERENCE Webinar Series launches with a joint session featuring FirstTo6G to explore complementary microelectronics hardware concepts, specifically targeting fully wireless radio units for distributed MIMO and advanced time-modulated array techniques. The event highlights early achievements of both Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking projects, with a dedicated focus on 6G-enabling data converters and power-efficient linear amplification architectures. Leading researchers from RWTH Aachen, ETH Zürich, and InCirT will present on high-frequency circuits in silicon and III-V technologies, alongside system-level strategies for bandwidth scaling and manufacturability. The session concludes with an interactive panel discussion examining synergies between the projects and opportunities for broader collaboration within the SNS JU ecosystem.
