Накратко на български

Цел на проекта

The ANCHOR project brings together leading academic, industry stakeholders, and SMEs to establish a structured doctoral training program addressing critical technical challenges and skill shortages for next-generation of communication networks. Traditional wireless networks, often reliant on single radio communication and inflexible architectures, will not be able to meet growing demands on bandwidth, reliability, energy efficiency, and sustainability, as well as extended coverage from underwater, terrestrial, and aerial network components. To overcome these limitations, ANCHOR leverages innovations in the untapped potential of THz and optical wavelengths alongside existing radio technologies. ANCHOR has meticulously designed fifteen doctoral projects that focus on cutting-edge innovations in optical, radio, and THz wireless communications and the harmonization of coexisting spectrums and networks. Through these efforts, ANCHOR will not only deepen fundamental theories but also provide practical, scalable solutions to improve 3D coverage, mobility, latency, network capacity, energy efficiency, and suitability for the future telecommunications infrastructure.By fostering cross-sector/cross-border collaboration in next-generation communication systems and digital infrastructure, ANCHOR will contribute significantly to the HE priorities under the Digital, Industry, and Space Cluster. The project also directly supports the EU’s Digital Decade goals by driving the development of sustainable, high-capacity communication networks, contributing to Europe’s leadership in the digital economy. ANCHOR’s doctoral candidates will be guided by leading experts from academia and industry through well-structured projects, secondments, and training activities. This comprehensive approach ensures the candidates acquire the multidisciplinary knowledge and skills required to address real-world challenges, drive innovation in wireless networks, and develop promising personal careers.
