International recognition for research results on 6G mobile networks
Scientists from the Chair of Communication Networks received special recognition for their research results in this area at international conferences in Rome and Boston. Marco Danger was presented with a "Best Young Author Award" at the IEEE Measurement & Networks Symposium in Rome. Simon Häger received the "Best Paper Award" at the IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN) in Boston.
The award-winning papers deal with different facets of the innovative HELIOS system concept developed at the chair of Prof. Dr. Christian Wietfeld. This involves novel, 3D-printed reflectors that deflect the radio waves in such a way that they can illuminate the dreaded coverage gaps. This will make it possible to avoid dead spots in the future in a sustainable way, as the HELIOS reflectors require neither energy nor a connection to the fixed network.
