Within
CEA (Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy French Commission), the Laboratory
for Electronics & Information Technology (CEA-LETI) works with companies in
order to increase their competitiveness through technological innovation and
transfers. CEA-LETI is focused on micro- and nanotechnologies and their
applications, from wireless devices and systems, to biology and healthcare or
photonics. Since 3G, CEA-LETI has been pioneering innovative research on future
wireless systems. The ‘New-6G’ initiative leaded by CEA-LETI and the wireless
broadband system laboratory are devoted to research activities and prototyping
on 5G, beyond-5G, and 6G research. For the past few years, the laboratory has
been particularly active in the AI field and its implementation in the future communication
systems. The lab is part of the ETSI Experiential Networked Intelligence (ENI)
Industrial Standardization Group focusing on the deployment of AI in future
cellular networks. It has strong expertise in cellular networks, resource
management, heterogeneous networks, and optimization. The laboratory has
led/taken part in many R&D French, European, and international
collaborative projects and has strong links with ICT industry. CEA-LETI (and
the wireless broadband system laboratory) is part of the multidisciplinary
institute in artificial intelligence (MIAI), a French multidisciplinary project
proposal, which has been pre-selected by the ANR to establish a local network
of well-known researchers working on AI. Moreover, CEA-LETI antenna &
propagation laboratory has strong experience in antenna and metasurface design,
channel sounding and modelling. Its characterization platform includes three
anechoic chambers, specific on probe setup for the characterization of advanced
integrated antennas operating at millimetre wavelengths, channel sounders, and a
channel emulator. Finally, CEA-LETI has been actively contributing for more than
a decade into collaborative research programs on wireless localisation,
including theoretical aspects, algorithms and localisation-enabled protocol
design, system integration and field validations.
