The KU 6G Research Center is supported by dedicated laboratory facilities that allow experimental research on 5G and 6G technologies. The core 6GRC Lab provides a flexible platform for prototyping wireless systems and testing new concepts in real-world conditions. Key capabilities and infrastructure include:
In addition to these, the KU 6GRC leverages Khalifa University’s broader engineering laboratories (for instance, facilities for electronics, photonics, and cybersecurity) when interdisciplinary experimentation is needed. The center’s lab infrastructure is continually evolving to incorporate new equipment, such as advanced spectrum analyzers, channel sounders, and Massive MIMO antenna arrays, to keep pace with emerging 6G research requirements. By providing these state-of-the-art facilities, the center ensures that theoretical research can be rapidly validated and demonstrated via prototypes.
