  "textContent": "Nvidia has partnered with a variety of global telecom providers for a commitment to build 6G on open and secure artificial intelligence-native platforms, bringing software-defined networking to telecommunications.\n\nAnnounced at the Mobile World Congress conference, the list of Nvidia partners is a who’s who of telecom — Booz Allen, BT Group, Cisco, Deutsche Telekom, Ericsson, MITRE, Nokia, OCUDU Ecosystem Foundation, ODC, SK Telecom, SoftBank Corp. and T-Mobile. Initial trials for 6G are expected to start as early as 2028, and the new network is expected to launch commercially around 2030.\n\n“Unlike 5G, 6G is being born in the AI era, and the networks of today simply aren’t ready for the use cases of tomorrow,” said Ronnie Vasishta, senior vice president of telecommunications at Nvidia on conference call with the tech media. “Remember, AI did not exist when 5G was being defined. So using AI to even improve the networks wasn’t possible in that definitional phase.”\n\n#####  **Related** : [**More Nvidia news and insights****]**\n\nThe company said the initiative represents a shared commitment to ensure 6G infrastructure is open, intelligent, resilient and accelerates innovation and safeguards global trust. 6G wireless networks will become the fabric for physical AI, enabling billions of autonomous machines, vehicles, sensors and robots to operate at scale.\n\n6G wireless networks are being designed to accelerate advancements in physical AI, allowing autonomous machines, sensors, vehicles, and robots to interact with the real world.\n\nBy embedding AI across the radio access network (RAN), edge and core, 6G networks must enable secure integrated sensing and communications, intelligence and decision-making while supporting interoperability, supply-chain resilience and faster innovation.\n\nNvidia also announced a new AI-RAN collaborations with partners T-Mobile US, SoftBank and Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, all of which have taken test systems live.\n\n“Software defined AI-RAN is no longer just a concept. It’s moving to live networks. T Mobile, Nokia, and Nvidia have completed the first live AI-RAN call using Nokia’s CUDA accelerated software running on Nvidia at their outdoor trials on live networks,” said Vasishta.\n\nThis year’s MWC will see three times the number of AI-RAN innovations compared to last year, with 26 out of 33 AI-RAN Alliance demos built using Nvidia AI Aerial and a software-defined architecture.\n\n#### **More Nvidia news:**\n\n  * Nvidia plans a Windows PC SoC, setting up direct competition with Qualcomm, Intel, and AMD\n  * Nvidia lines up partners to boost security for industrial operations\n  * Meta scoops up more of Nvidia’s AI chip output\n  * Reports of Nvidia/OpenAI deal in jeopardy are overblown, says Nvidia’s CEO\n  * Eying AI factories, Nvidia buys bigger stake in CoreWeave\n  * China clears Nvidia H200 sales to tech giants, reshaping AI data center plans\n  * Nvidia is still working with suppliers on RAM chips for Rubin\n  * RISC-V chip designer SiFive integrates Nvidia NVLink Fusion to power AI data centers\n  * Nvidia H200 chips in China: US says yes, China says no\n  * Lenovo-Nvidia partnership targets faster AI infrastructure rollouts\n\n",
