Скачать или смотреть From 5G to 6G: Inside the Smart Internet Lab

In this 'About Us' overview, we introduce the Smart Internet Lab at the University of Bristol—one of the UK's most renowned Information and Communications Technology (ICT) research centres.

Unlike traditional research centres that work in silos, we bring together over 200 experts across three key disciplines to design networks from end-to-end:

Communication systems & networks (CSN): Wireless, RF, and 5G/6G technologies.

High performance networks (HPN): Optical networking, cloud computing, and SDN.

Photonics & quantum: The physics of light and secure quantum communications.

Key themes covered:

Holistic research: Combining hardware and software co-design to solve global internet evolution challenges.

"In the Wild" testing: Using Bristol as a city-scale testbed for smart city and autonomous transport technologies.

Societal impact: How our research powers everything from smart stadiums to digital health and the creative industries.
