Samsung Electronics announced on the 15th that it will hold a “Partner Day” and the “Silicon Valley Future Communications Summit 2026” in Mountain View, Silicon Valley, in the United States on local time 14-15, and disclose real-world verification results for next-generation communication technologies. Samsung Electronics Network Business Division President Kim Woo-june will deliver the keynote speech at the “Partner Day” in Mountain View, Silicon Valley, in the United States on the 14th local time.
Samsung Electronics will disclose the results of verifying communications performance with AI applied across all layers of RAN, as well as verification results for transmission performance in the 7 GHz band, a candidate 6G frequency. It will also present real-world verification results for user-perceived performance at cell edges and for ISAC performance using base station infrastructure.
More than 100 communications experts, including telecom operators, manufacturers, government agency officials and academics, will attend the event. Samsung Electronics plans to showcase the verification results before industry, academic and government attendees.
At the event, Samsung Electronics will demonstrate core 6G technologies co-developed and verified with global partners. The demonstration will cover AI-RAN, high-density multiple-input multiple-output (X-MIMO), distributed multiple-input multiple-output (D-MIMO) and ISAC.
Among these, Samsung Electronics plans to disclose the verification results for AI-RAN and transmission performance in the 7 GHz band. AI-RAN is a technology that combines AI and the radio access network. The disclosures at this event will include verification results for applying AI across all layers of RAN and for user-perceived performance at cell edges.
The 7 GHz band is one of the candidate 6G frequencies under study. Samsung Electronics also plans to disclose transmission performance in the 7 GHz band, a candidate 6G frequency.
In February, Samsung Electronics conducted a verification test with KT and Keysight on the application of X-MIMO in the 7 GHz band. The test confirmed a maximum downlink speed of 3 Gbps. Following that, Samsung Electronics plans to present at this event the communications performance resulting from applying AI across all layers of RAN and the verification results for user-perceived performance at cell edges.
ISAC is a core 6G technology. It has the capability to perform communications and sensing simultaneously in the same frequency band and with the same hardware. This makes it possible to perceive the physical environment through communications infrastructure and to connect perceived information to digital services.
Samsung Electronics disclosed verification results for sensing performance using base station infrastructure at the event. Samsung Electronics conducted related technology tests in the United States in collaboration with Verizon. The verification was carried out in the field in a real-world environment at a major sports event in Dallas, Texas.
In addition, satellite communications technology for expanding 6G communications beyond terrestrial networks was also presented as a topic for discussion. The review included the current state of low Earth orbit satellite constellations, the technical challenges of low Earth orbit satellite constellations, satellite communications standards under discussion at 3GPP, and the 3GPP satellite communications roadmap.
The Silicon Valley Future Communications Summit consisted of three sessions. Session 1 focused on AI-native 6G networks, Session 2 on expanding 6G coverage based on satellite communications, and Session 3 on hyper-connectivity linking the real and virtual worlds.
At the summit, participants discussed technical challenges for applying AI to improve network performance and for improving operational efficiency in communications networks. ISAC and physical AI were also covered. ISAC and physical AI were presented as technologies that play a role in connecting the physical world with digital services.
Samsung Electronics is conducting joint research on 6G technologies with global telecom operators. This year, it began collaborating with LG Uplus on the development of ISAC technology, and it is continuing research partnerships with SoftBank, NTT DOCOMO, KDDI Research, KT and SK Telecom.
Jung Jin-guk, executive vice president and head of Samsung Research’s Next Generation Communications Research Center at Samsung Electronics, said the company is leading the development of core network technologies for realizing 6G based on close cooperation with partners in the communications industry. He added that the company plans to continue mobilizing its advanced research capabilities to advance next-generation communication technologies for both operators and users.
