O-RAN ALLIANCE’s Industry Engagement Focus Group (IEFG) and next Generation Research Group (nGRG) are jointly hosting a one‑day workshop on next-G research and on Integrated Sensing & Communications (ISAC).
It's scheduled on June 4, 2026 from 8:30am – 7:30pm PDT as an interactive online event, broadcast from the O-RAN F2F meeting in Seattle, USA.
O-RAN members and participants are welcome to attend in person, as part of the O-RAN F2F meeting Seattle-Bellevue, 1-5 June 2026 - register through the wiki (requires O-RAN membership login).
The morning part focuses on next generation network research. nGRG is planning 10 sessions delivering insightful presentations.
The afternoon part dives deep into various aspects of Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC) – standards, architecture, implementation, role of open interfaces, and path to 6G native sensing. Discussions will span from current state of ISAC implementations, performance, and validating testing to path to commercialization. We will examine how RAN sensing can leverage E3 (Edge‑Enhanced Exposure) interface and dApps to support ISAC use cases such as drone swarm sensing and detection.
Detailed agenda is in preparation and will be published, soon.
Speaker lineup will be published, soon.
