Applications in Digital Medicine: 6G networks will improve network utilization
The recent results of our collaboration with the colleagues from TUM Klinikum has been announced in the latest TUM press release:
Applications in Digital Medicine: 6G networks will improve network utilization
Telemedicine, continuous monitoring, and remote procedures are becoming increasingly important in medicine. For these to operate seamlessly in everyday clinical practice, data must be transmitted quickly, reliably, and without interruption. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and TUM University Hospital have investigated how future 6G networks can manage computing power and data transmission in such a way that up to 40 percent more applications can be run simultaneously.
For more details see the TUM press release of June 2, 2026.
The work is based on our joint publication presented at the IFIP Networking 2026 conference:
