TERahertz ReconfigurAble METAsurfaces for ultra-high rate wireless communications
Sobre nós
The TERRAMETA consortium is comprised of 13 Institutions including universities, research centers, and companies, with more than 50 researchers associated with its activities, all working in the area of wireless communications under the common vision for 6G communications. This next-generation wireless paradigm will provide unprecedented levels of data transfer rates, reliability, connectivity, and coverage. TERRAMETA is at the forefront of the global 6G research & planning endeavor. Specifically, the project focuses on designing, manufacturing, and evaluating “meta-material” surfaces, similar to existing – but more advanced, wireless antennas, under the Terahertz (THz) bands (which, when deployed, will offer 1000’s of orders of magnitude higher bandwidth than the current 4G systems). Those surfaces act as reflectors, sensors, and/or (re-)transmitters of the wireless signals reaching them and can be deployed so as to intelligently control their reflection patterns in real-time (thanks to sophisticated signal processing or AI-based algorithms running in their internal controllers) in order to optimize the wireless system and provide the best possible quality of service to the users with minimal costs on the end of wireless operators. The TERRAMETA project has received funding from the Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) under the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement No 101097101, including top-up funding by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) under the UK government’s Horizon Europe funding guarantee. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the authors only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union, SNS JU or UKRI. The European Union, SNS JU or UKRI cannot be held responsible for them.

TERRAMETA Project held another successful face-to-face meeting in Cork, Ireland, on June 25th and 26th. The strong collaboration and insightful discussions between the partners were truly remarkable, especially for this meeting which marked the halfway point of the project. We are pleased to have participated in this very productive meeting! Many thanks to Sean Ahearne for organizing the venue at Dell Technologies! #TERRAMETA #6G #6GSNS #SNSJU #HorizonEurope Luis Pessoa George Alexandropoulos

Great discussion on 6G at #HANNOVERMESSE ! #TERRAMETA #6G #SNSJU #6GSNS #metasurfaces #localization
Just wrapped up a 6G industry panel at HANNOVER MESSE. The panel "Is Industry waiting for 6G?" counted with myself, representing INESC TEC and the TERRAMETA Project, Frank Burkhardt from Fraunhofer IIS, representing 6G-SHINE project, Thomas Kürner from Technische Universität Braunschweig, representing TIMES 6G, Dr.-Ing. Christian Bauer from Belden Inc., Dr. Eike Lyczkowski from SEW Eurodrive, Andreas Mueller from Bosch, and Miriam Solera Ureña from VDMA as moderator. It was a great discussion where we addressed topics such as "Why are industries missing the 5G Boat?", "Why should industries adopt 5G now?", "What should we expect from 6G?". I suggested the killer apps that will give a true impulse to 5G are XR for business applications (training, assisted maintenance, remote support), real-time AI analytics such as those based on fine-tuned LLMs running on of edge computing resources. 6G will be disruptive in the value that Sensing is expected to bring to wireless communications, in particular, by leveraging reconfigurable metasurfaces operating in the sub-THz frequency range and multimodal sensing. I emphasised these key applications for sensing: environment digital twinning for an improved awareness of the factory floor, including factory supply line monitoring and fault detection, as well as for human sensing, such as posture and hand gesture recognition.
