The University of Granada leads the 6G-CHRONOS project

CanalUGR is reporting on our leadership in the 6G-CHRONOS project! Read it here. "The University of Granada (UGR), in collaboration with prominent partners such as Telefonica, Safran, and Neutroon, leads the 6G-CHRONOS project, an initiative financed by the European Union through the NextGenerationEU program. This project has aimed at the use of Advanced 5G and 6G networks for industrial connectivity, contributing to the digital transformation of industry, also known as Industry 4.0."

Last plenary meeting of the 6G-CHRONOS project

After nearly three years of collaboration, we held the final plenary meeting of the 6G-CHRONOS project with our colleagues from Telefonica, Safran, and Neutroon. During the meeting, we presented the key achievements, including a prototype of a TSN network integrated with a 5G system, which successfully meets the QoS requirements for Industry 4.0 applications. Additionally, the prototype features network exposure capabilities, enabling third parties (e.g., industry stakeholders) to configure their private networks using high-level policies. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all parties involved in the project for making it a success!

Our colleague Pablo Ameigeiras has become a full professor!

Infrastructure and testbeds

    We have developed demonstrators and proof-of-concepts (PoC) for many of our research works, especially for mobile networks (4G/5G/6G), multi-connectivity (5G and Wi-Fi 6) and LoRaWAN.
    As an example, the picture below shows one of our demonstrators for multi-connectivity. This testbed, which includes a 5G system and a Wi-Fi 6 network, allows us to make experiments with a CPE simultaneously connected to both technologies, achieving end-user throughput around 2 Gbps.

Our colleagues Alejandra and Antonio presenting the posters "Performance evaluation of a real-world 5G network prototype" and "Performance evaluation of 5G networks in the FR2 (mmWave) band" at the CITIC coffee (Jun'26). The posters summarize their B.Sc. Thesis, which has been supervised by our colleagues Jorge and Felix. Contratulations!

Our colleagues Pablo R., Julia and Pablo M. presenting the poster "Impact of 5G latency and jitter on TAS scheduling in a 5G-TSN network: an empirical study" at the CITIC coffee (Jun'26). Well done!

Our colleague Pablo M. presenting the poster "INNOVA-RAG: Application of Retrieval-Augmented Generation Technique in the Field of Educational Innovation" at the CITIC coffee (Jun'26). This poster shows the main results from a project on innovative teaching directed by Pablo M. Congratulations!

Our colleagues Lucia and Jose David presenting the poster "5G networks for intelligent robotics" at the CITIC coffee (Jun'26). Congrats!

Our colleague Pablo Rodriguez, imparting a workshop at the ETSIIT-UGR for Teleco Renta, an initiative to promote the degree of Telecommunications Engineering. You can watch the workshop on Instagram. Congrats, Pablo!

Our colleague Pablo Rodriguez delivered a presentation at The European Researchers' Night, showcasing the innovative iPerrobot: Intelligent Telecommunications workshop at the CITIC-UGR stand. During his talk, he explained how his quadruped robot prototype, iPerroBot, is designed for rescue missions in hazardous environments, using telecommunications technology and AI to transmit live video, receive commands, and share data from hard-to-reach areas. This development highlights how engineering and AI can help save lives without putting more people at risk.
